UHMC Nurse Aide Certification Course Offered with Tuition Sponsorship
The University of Hawaiʻi Maui College’s Office of Extended Learning & Workforce Development is currently seeking applicants for a Nurse Aide Certificate program being offered with full tuition sponsorship.
The four and a half month long course will begin on June 16 and end on Oct. 30, 2021. Online lectures will occur on weeknights, while labs and clinicals will be held on-campus with weekday, weeknight, or weeknight/Saturday morning scheduling options available.
