Silicon Valley school of nursing CNA program!!

[Bidisha]

Hello All,

I am currently taking my pre-reqs for nursing school, and to get a feel of the field, I would like to go for a CNA certification. I am currently located in the Bay area, CA, and the nearest program I found was offered by a school called Silicon Valley school of nursing.

Did anyone get a CNA certification from them? If so, how's the program? Does it really prepare you well for a real world job?

Any feedback/reviews will be very much appreciated!!

Thanks a lot in advance,

Bidisha

Where is it located?

Have you looked at local community colleges, local long term care facilities, or ROP's to find reasonably priced (free at some LTC facilities) programs? Exhaust all of these sources before spending a lot of money at a proprietary school.
