Train as a trainer for what? To be an instructor in an LPN it depends on BoN regulations. In my state clinical & theory instructors for practical nursing programs must be an RN with a bachelors degree and they may only instruct in areas where they have paid work experience. Such as my sister who has worked pediatrics her entire career cannot instruct adult med/surg or psych/mental health.
(for cna only licensed RNs can instruct
To instruct STNA'S.
Check if LPNs can provide such instruction. Some states yes, others it must be an RN
