Ponca City, OK — Prerequisites for the Practical Nursing (PN) program have been bundled together for a limited time for students to take advantage of ARPA tuition assistance. The classes include CNA Long Term Care, Anatomy & Physiology, and Medical Terminology. The entire course is 240 hours in length and will not only produce a CNA credential for students but also allow them to complete the classes needed to enroll in the Practical Nursing program. The mixture of inperson and online courses means students can complete classes at their own pace.

Kahle Goff, Executive Director of Instructional Services says, “We are so excited to offer this combined class, and the fact that students can get tuition assistance is the icing on the cake. I hope that we are flooded with future nurses who can take advantage of this program.”

Students entering the PN Pre-requisite program will start the CNA portion of the course on February 24th as part of the regularly scheduled CNA class. Pioneer Tech’s Adult Training and Development team will provide priority enrollment to these individuals.

Interested students should contact the PTC Practical Nursing program or the Adult Training and Development team at 580-762-8336.
