 I wanted to do this program to be an STNA. The program would have offered job placement. I cannot afford to pay for it myself, so I had to apply for something called WIA funding to pay for it. As far as I know it's the only funding they take. So I called the people I needed to to apply for it, and they are all out of money and won't have any more money to help anyone until July. I can be put on a waiting list, but July is the earliest I can get this money to go.

It's depressing as I have been out of work for the last 8 months or so. I have been trying to look for  a job with no luck so when I found this I thought it would be something I'd like to do that would guarentee me a job.

Back to the drawing board for now...I'll keep looking for work until I can get this money..wish me luck.

I hate the economy.

That is a nursing assistant right? I am not good with acronyms lol.

Call around to nursing homes, ALOT of them do free classes then you have a chance to have a job with them. When my DH took them they paid HIM. Of course that was 10 years ago.

Good luck!!
