Implementing ReadyCNA

Implementing ReadyCNA

ReadyCNA is an online course that replaces the theory portion of instructor-led lectures of a CNA program. While students are not in a traditional classroom setting, instructors are able to monitor student progress and performance through the Learning Management System. ReadyCNA, is device agnostic, allowing students to use smartphones, tablets or computers to complete the course at hours that best suit them, while following the CNA program’s syllabus.

In conjunction with the online theory, students will meet in person with their instructors to cover the skills portion of their CNA training and their clinical hours in a skilled nursing facility. While these skills are initially introduced to students throughout ReadyCNA, the training partner provides in-person instruction, providing students with the hands-on practice to master the skills. Students will also complete the clinical hours determined by the state, getting hands-on experience with residents under the supervision of their instructor.

ReadyCNA is not meant to replace the skills nor clinical components of a CNA program. ReadyCNA is meant to serve as a substitute for the traditional classroom- based environment, for students that may be unable to attend an in-person CNA class or for those who prefer online learning at their own pace and schedule.
