How do I become a CNA?
The NTSOC CNA School is open in our Colorado Springs location!
Are you looking for job security? Want to make a real difference in someone’s live? Are you caring for a disabled family member? A Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) is an important position in any clinical or home healthcare setting.
CNAs, under the direct supervision of a Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), are a core part of a healthcare team and assist patients with daily activities and tasks that provide the hands-on care so many patients need.
CNAs are also sometimes referred to as Nursing Assistants, Nurse’s Aid, or Patient Care Assistant (PCA). Our school provides the platform many CNA candidates seek to work in a rewarding profession, learn how to effectively care for a family member, friend or other loved one, or further their career aspirations to become an LPN or RN.
The NTSOC state licensed CNA training program has an unparalleled reputation in Colorado, and recruiters often tell us that “they like to hire graduates from the NTSOC CNA school as they do not require shadowing."
Our talented team of CNA instructors are ready to help you in a program that opens up the path to a new and rewarding career.

Highlights of our program include:
CNAs give our loved ones essential care and emotional support. Since CNAs see their patients every day, they are a vital link in providing updates to doctors and nurses. CNAs are trained to perform personal care activities such as bathing, hair care, oral hygiene, and assisting with dressing. They can facilitate simple exercises and transfers. Our CNAs also help with therapy programs when instructed. Our instructors stress the importance of providing your loved ones with care and empathy.
While carefully monitoring the health of your loved one, our CNAs are trained to report any changes in condition. Also, while working closely with families, they provide emotional support and offer new avenues to socialization during home visits.
