Hello. Well I'm new here and I'm interested in becoming a CNA, because throughout my life I have worked my A$$ off doing pointless stuff, mostly selling useless and pointless products, or doing pointless redundant tasks. I want a job that matters no matter the physical strain on me, I can handle it. My name is Sunaj, I am an Afro American male of 25. I am currently a dish washer at Whole Foods. I am looking to transition to become a CNA but it's difficult to get into school where it's offered due to my work schedule. I saw an ad on craigslist and called them, I asked the guy how it was possible to train people on 1 day and he said he's been doing it for six years. I wasn't sure what kind of questions to ask him as this doesn't really seem as legit concrete or "robust" as a full blown course held at a technical college or elsewhere. The CNA program is full already and wont be starting until the summer here at my local school, though there are two of them, I need more info on the other one. So my question to you all " Is the craigslist ad legit at all? " if so, " what are the pros and cons?" Thanks -Sunaj

Fast Track CNA companies are legit and can be utilized to pass your test if you are a self motivated go getter! Whether or not this program is a good one, I don't know. There are reputable fast track companies who have as good a pass rate as schools with longer classes. Ask him if you get a free refresher if you fail the test the first time.

I say go for it! CNA its mostly on the job anyways. Where I am from (Alabama) 90% of everyone is not certified. I went to CNA school just to show that I had Hands on experience ( I am a pre med major), and I found it to be pointless. Other than how to take vitals there isnt much to learn.
