We focus on one thing and we do it right! We are a small, locally owned training center offering Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA title comes after passing state board exam) & CNA 2 classes. Since we opened our doors in 2012, we have become the third largest school in the state of Oregon while maintaining small, intimate classes.

Options

We offer day classes, night classes, Lebanon classes, and funding resources all to help make our program more accessible! You may even qualify to get all costs reimbursed after successful completion! Call us for more info! 

*Karlee F. 5/5 Stars-"This program is amazing! The class size is perfect for students who learn better in small settings! Everyone here is so friendly and they really work with you if you have no prior experience! Highly recommended!

Test Preparation

  • Our curriculum is written by a certified state tester
  • Free lab time, after graduation for practice
  • Many of our students take their state boards in the same classrooms they learn in

Our students currently have the highest pass rate for the Oregon State Board of Nursing CNA certification exam in Lane, Linn and Benton county! 

*Hannah B. 5/5 Stars-"Amazing place! Everyone here is extremely supportive and helpful. I felt prepared for my job and for future. I would suggest to anyone looking to get their CNA 1 or 2!"

Our Instructors

Our state approved instructors have a passion for teaching future health care professionals. We use hands on, compassionate and functional teaching to prepare our students to pass their state board certification exam and succeed in the field.
