I'm thinking of taking online courses for CNA. However, there are so many things out there! Anyone have positive experiences with certain places?

How about at a real college? Most of them have online classes now. That way you don't have to worry if the school is accredited or not.

CNA? No. CCNA? Yes. Two vastly different fields though.

Thank you for that. I swear. The easiest answers are the best!

Seriously.

I googled " (insert your state here) Community College online "

And came across colleges I know of in the area!!!

Thank you.

I know what a CNA is, silly. That's why I said it was a vastly different field than a CCNA - Certified Cisco Networking Associate.

If you go through a community college for online courses, it is very likely that they will have an on-campus component for at least a few of the classes, so make sure you pick one that's within a reasonable distance or easy access.

In NYS, online courses are part of a network of SUNY colleges. I'd imagine other states do the same or similar with their state and/or community colleges.

ALL accredited colleges will require some on-campus time (the accrediation agencies look carefully at that).

Cheers!
