Michiana Healthcare Training Inc. (About MHT ) is a non-facility training school located in South Bend, Indiana that offers a tuition-based 3-week CNA training program that meets both Indiana and Federal guidelines for Nursing Assistant training. This company was formed in July 2000 by a group of RNs who had previously worked for many years as CNA training instructors. All classroom instructors are state certified program directors and have a combined total of over 45 years of CNA teaching experience. See (About MHT) for Testimonials and Awards. Over 1500 students have become state certified since company inception.

Remember: it is not enough that you complete your 3-week training.
You must also pass your State Competency Exam!

We are very proud that 98% of students who complete our course pass the exam!

Reasons for this are:

1. Our expert instructors
2. Timely testing: we normally are able to schedule the state testers to come in within 2 weeks of course completion
3. The day before the test we hold a comprehensive Review Session. Students are encouraged to try harder, and they do!!

"The clinical experience that I had was very professional. Michiana Healthcare is the best place throughout the region and is by fat the greatest training for CNA's. I am proud to say that this is where I received my training. Everyone knows when you get a group of women together it's like the game Chinese telephone. I have seen it it wasn't that way here. You are very organized and that makes things go smoothly. You are a smart bunch of girls. Thank you!"
