this may be none of my business... but.... you've already got a college degree with nothing to do with nursing... while it's not unusual for someone to switch careers-- that generally happens after they've been working in the career for a bit...

Are you contemplating this change (which in the short run, doesn't seem like it's a career move, in the long run, if you were to pursue nursing (an noble profession that is begging for people to make it a career choice) as a career, down the road it's be a stepping stone.

Not that there's anything wrong with being a CNA, if it's what you want to do, but why not aim a little higher for yourself... you've talked about going to grad school - why not pursue that via distance learning...

/me going back to minding her own business...

In answer to your question... those corresponce course that sally struthers shills for offer a CNA program -- that might not be as respected as say... something from your local community college....
