Hi, I'm a new CNA (5 months) in upstate NY, working in a nursing home. My union is 1199, and I'm very interested in becoming an LPN. I recently heard that my union might provide financial assistance through tuition reimbursement or tuition assistance. Does anyone have experience with how this works? How much does it cover? How helpful has it been for you? Also, do you have to work and study full-time? I would greatly appreciate any information!
