This school was the best decision that I could have made for the start of journey into nursing. This school offered me so many experiences and opportunities as well as saved my life. As a student here, I was diagnosed with a very serious heart condition in which I never would have found if I had not come to this school. Dr. H quite literally saved my life as well as gave me amazing advice in which allowed me to take better care of my health as well as additional steps to take on my nursing journey. I also loved seeing her dog on occasion when he would come visit my class. As a 17 year old high school student in whom was doing normal high school monday-friday and cna school on saturday-sunday, I was supported with unconditional love, respect, and guidance by Dr. H and Mrs. Mona. I am eternally grateful to this school for all that they have done for me, my classmates, and my health.

This week is my last week at ICAN, and I truly loved my experience from beginning to end. Dr. H is an excellent instructor who always makes sure students understand the material, and she makes every lecture enjoyable and engaging. Miss Mona is also amazing, she is incredibly helpful during clinicals and always makes herself available to answer any questions that come up. I’m very grateful for all the support and guidance I received throughout the program. Thank you ICAN. ☺️

I graduate from inland academy this week and honestly I had such an amazing experience in this CNA program, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better instructor than Doctor H. She goes above and beyond for her students and genuinely cares about us, not just as students but as family. What made her stand out to me is how she takes the time to build connections with everyone and creates a comfortable, supportive environment. She has a way of making the class both fun and really informative. As a 17 year old, I learned so much more than other older CNA’s, thanks to her. Not to mention, her dog ranger was such a cutie, seeing him during class always made my day better. But besides that Doctor H and Mrs Mona, were such a help and so kind, one of the best teachers I’ve ever had. I’m really grateful I got to learn from them, and I really recommend this course for you!

After spending a few months contemplating on furthering my education, having previously thought I couldn't. Dr. Harrington reassured me, drawing on her personal experiences, of how inspirational it is to keep expanding one's knowledge no matter the obstacles. ICAN is a very thorough and well-put-together educational program. Having a private experience helped me feel confident in returning into a career. My confidence in CNA work, thanks to Dr. Harrington, is now 100%. I definitely recommend ICAN.

I completed my BLS certification here for my pre-nursing school admission and I would highly recommend for all pre-nursing or CNA needs. As a student currently enrolled in CBU I would highly recommend Inland Christian Academy to do any pre-requisites for students planning to attend CBU as the educator here is very knowledgeable about nursing and the enrollment process as well. Highly recommend!!

My family member went here and she had an amazing experience at this CNA school. The instructor is incredibly sweet, patient, and highly professional, and truly cares about her students’ success. The teacher takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, making sure students feel confident and supported throughout the program. The education provided is very in-depth, with plenty of hands-on learning that prepares students for real-world CNA work. Overall, it’s a welcoming, well-organized learning environment, and she would highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a quality CNA program
