Have you ever heard of job corps? There are over 150 locations in the USA. IF you are interested in going into the medical field Job Corps, a goverment program, will place you at a campus in which you can learn the necessary skills to become a Certified Nursing Assistant. Once you complete the program which could be anywhere from 6-8 months on average (I finished in 2 1/2 months) they will pay mfor you to take the CNA State Exam. If youd like to go higher and pursue a career as an LPN they will send you to advance training for free and you can also take those classes for free. They also pay for you to take LPN exam as well...

I f you want more info just message me.:monkeydance:

What do you have to commit to once you become a CNA or LPN? Would you be traveling? How many years do you have to commit to Job Corps once you finish?

Well, I would like to say that they told my daughter she could complete the LVN program through Job Corp and then they denied her. She said that their is a lot of favortism in the program. This program is not for everyone. I also think they are a little racist.

I checked out the Job Corps website and it says to be eligible, you must be between 18 and 25. Anybody know of any other place they pay for LPN courses for more older people?
