COVID-19 Update:
  • All students and staff are required to wear masks while inside our facility.
  • Due to State of Florida Department of Health notices and for the safety of the residents of our employer partners, all instructor-supervised clinical instruction will be completed within our simulation lab instead of on-site at a facility. This will not affect our student’s ability to become licensed certified nursing assistants.
  • Visitors have been restricted from entering our facility. Students and staff must complete a daily health screening prior to entry.

Reinventing healthcare training and recruitment

We understand that the traditional model of education doesn’t work for everyone. Not every person has the time and money to invest in a lengthy education that may or may not result in a better job.

That’s why we are taking a different approach. We accept candidates into our program who have a guaranteed job waiting before they even step foot into the classroom. Our graduates’ future employers are paying for their complete training. No cash costs for education, and no wondering if you’ll find a job once you graduate.

Over 1,000 graduated students
