Pre-CNA Classes
REACH's pre-CNA classes offer a flexible curriculum that supports CNAs who are studying to pass the written CNA exam.
​
These classes are designed to support the following students:
-
someone working provisionally as a CNA and preparing to take the CNA test for the first time
-
someone working provisionally as a CNA who has failed the CNA knowledge test and requires help studying to retake
​
Classes do not teach the content of the CNA test. Rather, they reinforce vocabulary key to the role of a CNA, as well as introduce test taking strategies and practice exams to support student success.
​
The classes are designed to support EL students with high beginner/low intermediate English skills or above. It is also for those whose first language is English and who need study support.
The class will support students with varying home languages; however, instruction is given in English.
​
Participants meet with a teacher and volunteers 1-3 times per week. Sessions are free of charge.
