Online CNA Training in Florida

Good Morning,

I work Full time and currently taking evening pre-req classes to apply for NS, hopefully in 2010. I am considering becoming a CNA to help with the career transition and it would be a lot more flexible once I start nursing school. I currently work in an office environment. I did Home Health Aide work in my early 20's back in New York, so I am familiar with the tasks.

I have 2 questions:
- Are there any schools in Florida that offer the training online
-What is the starting pay for CNA in the Orlando area.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You for the info, I prefer to go and take the class, If I can find a school that has weekend classes I can do that. I will look around. Thanks for the info. I really want to get out of the office environment and start my new career and don't want to wait 3 years until I finish NS. What is the starting pay.

Thank You for the info

I would really discourage people from taking an online CNA class. The written part of the exam is not rocket science, but only 50% pass the skills test on the first try.

The practice with other students for the skills is invaluable. You need an RN instructor to blow the whistle the moment you do something wrong!

It makes a lasting impression.

Good luck to all that choose to challenge unassisted. It can be done, but very few do.
