Have you been thinking about training to become a certified nursing assistant? Now is the time! The State of Minnesota just announced that it will offer free CNA training (while funds last) to qualified individuals.
Note: The free CNA training program has reached capacity. However, people who become employed at a nursing home or similar facility in Minnesota can still have their CNA training costs reimbursed. Contact us for more information.
How to Access Free CNA Training in Minnesota
It’s simple! Visit our website and register for a CNA training class using the code STATECNA. You can also contact our office to get set up. We’re currently offering CNA courses at our Minneapolis, Mankato and Duluth locations, with a portion of the coursework completed online.
Qualifications for CNA Training and Employment
In order to qualify for free training and incentives, participants must be at least 16 years old and fully vaccinated against COVID-19. You must be willing to successfully complete the training program, and must pass the nursing assistant competency exam within four months of being hired. Employers generally require a TB screening, criminal background check, and the ability to speak English and lift 35 pounds.
