• CNA Training
  If you are seriously considering a career as a Registered Nurse, don't miss out on an exciting opportunity that will be made available during Trimester 3, periods 4 & 5. Miller's Merry Manor and Renaissance Village will be piloting two CNA training classes comprised of  just Columbia City High School students. Preference is given to seniors who are in good standing at CCHS and who have completed a nursing internship at Parkview Whitley Hospital. Students will have both classroom and clinical experience plus be tested for free on site to obtain their license. Students who complete the CNA program and continue to work in the field will find themselves being favored for scholarships and entry into some of the better, highly competitive nursing programs in the state. For more information, please contact Mr. Scott Borah, Career Internship Director at CCHS, 244-6136, ext. 3224.
