Training Programs

Central Nursing College’s commitment is toward preparing students for successful placement in jobs with quality employers. As such, the teaching methods and materials are the most up-to-date and reflect the frequent changes in the allied health care field.

This combination of methodology, intensive technique, and regular revision assures participants of the highest quality instruction available in the shortest possible time. Program lengths are measured in class hours of instruction.

Instructional Methods, Techniques, and Materials

Competency-based methods, techniques and materials are used throughout all periods of instruction for all programs. Subjects are structured into specific modules or sections of instruction. (Note: this is not true for the Vocational Nursing track.) Each module is comprised of self-contained information and subjects that do not require any prerequisite knowledge or instruction. This involves an individual as well as “class” approach to instruction and learning. The details of subject matter for each Instructional Module are contained in an Instructional Plan booklet that is provided to each student depending on program.

There are many instructional and learning benefits to competency-based instruction. Under this technique, students learn to work and study independently, cultivating self-discipline, motivation and a solid work and study ethic that they carry through to the workplace.

Orientation

Orientations are held regularly for individual programs. This is a time when prospective students can get questions answered and fill out a formal application for the desired program.

Emphasized during these meetings are issues related to behavior, commitment to obtaining employment, educational objectives, student responsibilities, and grounds for dismissal.

Teaching Methods

Instruction includes lecture, lab, practical demonstrations and mandatory student participation. The progress of all students is monitored and graded regularly. Grades are based on a combination of objective and subjective evaluations of written and verbal tests, quizzes and proficiency in practical application. This method is specifically geared toward achieving high state board passing rates and ensuring job retention
