Student CNA Class

Thank you for your interest in taking the state certified nurse aide training program at NHC HealthCare Columbia . Our program is a fast-paced class that is completed in 10 days. To be considered for the class, you must provide the following at the time of your interview:

• Completed Application
• Valid Photo Identification
• Social Security Card

Since the class is only 10 days, no absences or tardiness is permitted. You must maintain a grade average of an 85 to continue in the course.

Books and Supplies ($40) will be needed as a deposit on the first day of class and will be returned upon graduation! You will be required to purchase one set of scrubs to wear every day to class and clinical.

We will run a criminal background check as well as consult the Tennessee and/or National Abuse Registry for Children and Adults. No one with a felony conviction, certain misdemeanor charges, and/or found on the abuse registry can be admitted to the class.

If you have been accepted into the class, you will receive a phone call on or before Friday before the class at 10:00AM.

Students are chosen based on the facility need, shift availability of the candidate, entrance exam score, flexibility of the candidate, previous work history and attitude. The best qualified candidates for the class will be chosen.
