I couldn’t have financially afforded the class on my own.

The Quality CNA staff were very supportive and were able to help me find the funding. Now I have a full time job and an apartment of my own. N.B Waupaca Student

I am not very book smart. My instructor noticed I was struggling

with the exams and allowed me to come into class early each day to help me so that I could graduate with the rest of the class. C.T. Waupaca Student

Thanks to this program I have just set myself up for a positive future.
