Health Occupations Students Take Their CNA Exam
Finally
the day has arrived!! We took our state test on Thursday, April
17. Our class went to Kishwaukee College, near DeKalb, to see
if we have learned all we need to know to become Certified Nursing
Assistants for the State of Illinois!
For many days before this test, we have been studying every day,
reviewing things we learned the first day of school here at IVVC.
What a long way we have come! We will know our results in about one
week. Our last journey for this year will then start with an
internship during some of our class time. The internships will help
us with deciding where to work and what kinds of jobs will be
available to us. For starting pay, most of us can earn $10 to $12
per hour. Much better than $7.50! We are lucky to have
such a great start to our careers, thanks to the IVVC Health
Occupations program!
