Bastien academy starting oct 5

The problem is I owe CCRI 700 from a previous time there (years back). So i would have to pay that plus the class fee. Everywhere else i have called (i am up to 34 nursing homes) so far either don't offer any, or start in January. I would like to be settled in the field way before then so I can start working toward my LPN next year. I am unemployed so network RI said they would pay for it but again... I would have to wait until the end of November. I went today and signed up, it was only $1000 for the class not 2500. Just seeing if anyone went the same route or is going the same route. I guess I could not wait to get into the field and start growing professionally.
