Classroom and laboratory training take place at the CNA training facility located at the M-TEC building at Bay College in Escanaba. Clinical training will take place at a local long-term care facility. Cost of the training is $800, which is eligible for full reimbursement; plus the cost of scrubs and textbook.

Bay College’s robust CNA program is designed to ensure that students will have the knowledge and hands-on experience to make them successful at their job. “Our training program provides students with the maximum amount of clinical training time possible; over 30% of our training hours are spent working in a local care facility.” says Renée Lundberg, Business Development Manager. “CNA positions offer competitive wages with benefits, and those completing the training may be eligible to receive college credits toward the Bay College nursing program.”
