Description This two-day course will help prepare eligible nurses to become instructors for the Medicaid nurse aide training program. It will provide classroom and demonstration experiences to assist the nurse in becoming a better teacher of nurse aides. The course will cover philosophy, course preparation, learning styles of students, areas of knowledge, performance and training techniques, use of lesson plans, instructional methods, and use of instructional aids.

Directors of Nurse Aide Training should attend this training.
