Thank you to all who took time to respond. I did call the dean of my school and was told "it's a fast paced program, and the run a tight ship" and they are backed by the PDE. I wasn't there long enough for my grant money I got from careerlink to go thru, but I'm now being told they can't guarantee me a spot for a grant, since I'll now be pushed back on the list. my brother is an LPN and he said he'll help me study over the summer so when I find another CNA program I will be familiar with the material.

I understand the absurdity of what i wrote, that's why I am in such shock myself. I emailed the dean of the department and was basically told they "run a tight ship" and have strict standards for aides. I know things have to be done right, but this was my 1st week and 1st exam ever. I am so sad, I've wanted to be a CNA for so long and finally got a chance thru the state funded grant I was given and now lost my funding.

I swear this just happened. It's from a program at our local community college. It was funded thru careerlink.

I just enrolled in a CNA class on April 3rd. Everything was going well, I'm absorbing info well, enjoying the experience, answering correctly when called on. Never late or absent. Today we learned for the 1st time EVER the process of "downing " so of course, the gown had to be put on precisely as instructed. I struggled getting the type of knot they wanted as it was odd for me making that type of knot behind my back without seeing it for the 1st time. So I failed my very 1st practical exam I have ever taken in this class and got kicked out. I can't reenroll. I do understand all steps must be mastered for safety reasons, I just feel this was kinda harsh, I really want this career, I am not squeamish at all, I am always polite and take verbal abuse well. I don't understand why I can't have a 2nd chance at this. Is this normal?! Thanks in advance for any input/information:
