What students study
Care begins with practical skills.
The catalogue covers communication and resident rights, safety and infection prevention, personal care, vital signs, nutrition, transfers, and care for people with cognitive or special needs.
The academy must approve an updated syllabus and confirm what is taught in the next cohort.
Ask for the current catalogueBefore class
Know what you will need.
The live program page and public catalogue list different admission, health, and screening requirements. Admissions should give every applicant one current checklist before enrollment.
Talk to AdmissionsPublished requirements to confirm
- School application; Social Security card and photo ID
- High school diploma or equivalent and affidavit of lawful presence
- Criminal and abuse-registry screening; drug screen
- Immunization or clinical-site health documents
- Tuition paid or an approved payment arrangement before class
The live page and catalog differ. This is not a final eligibility checklist. Needs academy confirmation.
After training
Course completion and state testing are separate steps.
The academy-approved admissions note says graduates use Missouri TMU to select an available state final exam date and location and pay the separate $135 exam expense. Passing the required exam is distinct from completing the course.
Current exam mechanics, school completion rules, and registry wording need academy and state-source review.
Plan the next step
Ask admissions about the current completion requirements and how to prepare for the state exam.
