The U.S. Bureau of Labour Statistics has projected a 20% increase by the year 2020 for certified nurse assistants. This is a great way to start your career in the health profession. The salary is rated among the highest compared to other non-degree positions. There are many CNA schools available in Orlando and we will find the top three.
CNA classes can be done online and might help a lot of parents or workers studying at the same time but is advised against do to the practical work. The practical exams are very strict and if you have not attended a class it is unlikely that you will pass the first time. Weekend classes or evening classes would be a better idea for a student with a very tight schedule.
