The current demand for CNAs in Utah is very high. In order to fulfill staffing needs, many employers of CNAs will hire entry-level candidates with no training or experience, and cover tuition costs for the employee to obtain their CNA certification through an approved program like Utah CNA Training Centers.

Our Employee Scholarship Network connects job-seekers with Employers of CNAs looking to sponsor an employee’s education. If you are an individual looking for steady employment or a future student looking for financial help, you can start working IMMEDIATELY and then enroll in a CNA course with minimal out-of-pocket expenses. Secure a job in healthcare even before taking a CNA course.
