CNA Program

CNA125 courses scheduled for Spring 2023 semester have been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. We hope to resume class offerings in the Fall 2023 semester.

Nursing Assistant

The Nursing Assistant Program is designed to prepare students to be eligible for Nursing Assistant certification (CNA) or licensing (LNA) through the Arizona State Board of Nursing and, upon examination, to practice in a health care agency as a Certified Nursing Assistant or Licensed Nursing Assistant. With a LNA, the student is eligible to apply to enter into the CAC Nursing Program.

Nurse Assisting involves the performance of routine tasks in the general care of hospital, clinic, and skilled care patients. Nursing Assistants work directly under the supervision of practical and registered nurses, assisting licensed staff in providing quality nursing care. This occupation is one of many possible steps on a career ladder in the healthcare field. Nursing Assistants are vital members of the healthcare team.

Potential employers include hospitals, residential care facilities, and patient homes.

Classes are offered at the following locations at various times throughout the year:

Signal Peak Campus-SPC
Maricopa Campus- MAR
San Tan Campus- STC
