Job and Career-Focused Healthcare Training Programs
Getting a job can be difficult. Finding a good career can be even harder. At Medstar Academy, we train students for rewarding, high-demand careers in healthcare. By preparing students for a career in the medical field, we work to help them create a foundation for long-term work that benefits both them and their families.
We look closely at the requirements for state and national exams and then develop a curriculum designed to effectively train students to pass the exams, readying them for successful healthcare careers.
Licensed Nursing Assistant (LNA)
Many employers are now requiring LNA certification for new nursing assistants. CNA students at Medstar Academy have the opportunity to get both CNA and LNA licensure at the same time for only a $103 additional fee. If you are interested in dual licensure, please contact student services for further information.

- Many of our students find jobs with our clinical partners
- Student Services patiently walk students through all the steps necessary to complete the forms and paperwork for certification.
