Entry Level Health Care Training Opportunity

CNA Brochure
Thanks to a grant from the United States Department of Labor, The Montgomery Institute is proud to announce a health care training opportunity for residents of eight East Mississippi counties.

While the majority of the funding will be used to  provide entry-level, Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) training at three area community colleges, funding is also available for CNA and other health care training classes for current health care institutions (Alliance Health Center, East Mississippi State Hospital, and Rush Health Systems).

Finally, a portion of the grant funding is available for scholarships for CNAs to move up the health care ladder to become LPNs and RNs.
