If you have a passion for bedside care, we can turn your passion into a career. Join one of the nation's fastest-growing industries, earn your certificate and begin working quickly! Upon graduating with the Nurse Aid Certificate, over 90% of our students get jobs in the industry. The demand for Nursing Assistants has continued to increase dramatically, and many hospitals are shifting toward hiring more Certified Nursing Assistants.
This program will prepare you to become a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA). A PPSC Program
Certificate does not guarantee state licensure or the ability to legally practice
as a Certified Nurse Aide. The PPSC Program Certificate grants the individual eligibility
to apply to take the Colorado Nurse Aide Certificate Examination. Successful completion
of the state certification exam within two years of program completion will result
in legal licensure and eligibility for practice within the State of Colorado.
PPSC Nursing Assistant students are provided an extensive, in-depth bedside education.
This program is treated as a nursing preparatory course, and students are given nearly
twice as much in-class and clinical experience than required by the Colorado State
Board of Nursing.
PPSC prepares its nursing assistant students with the skills, technical competence,
and know-how to find a rewarding career. Graduates have a reputation for being caring,
skilled, and efficient nursing assistants, who are highly sought after in our community.
We also offer other Nursing options to get you on your way to becoming an Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), Registered Nurse (RN), and earning a Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
