You are eligible to take the class and the state tests at age 15 so you are qualified to be employed at age 16.

In-person nursing assistant classes are offered in March/April, October/November, and in July. Classes are also offered at Roseau and Greenbush-Middle River High Schools during school hours for high school students. We also offer OnTrack, which is an online/hybrid nursing assistant training program that requires 43 hours of online modules and 32 hours of in-house training and is available to people who reside in Roseau County.

*The option of class sponsorship to cover the cost of class is available. 

*You can also work towards challenging the state test if you have let your certification expire and would like to continue working as a certified nursing assistant.

*A Criminal Background Study (as required by the Department of Human Services) and a tuberculin skin test will need to be completed per class requirements.
