CNA Program FAQs
Everything you need to know about becoming a certified nursing assistant in California — straight answers, no fluff.
How long is CNA training at LGL College?
It depends on your schedule. Our accelerated day program is 6 weeks (Mon–Fri), the evening program is 11 weeks, and the weekend program is 12 weeks. All three cover the same state-approved 160-hour curriculum and end with the California state certification exam, which we administer right on our La Habra campus.
How do I become a CNA in California?
To become a certified nursing assistant in California you must complete a CDPH-approved training program (at least 160 hours), pass a background check / Live Scan, and pass the state certification exam (written + skills). At LGL College, all of these steps — including your Live Scan and on-campus state exam — are built into one program, so you graduate certification-ready.
How much does the CNA program cost?
Tuition is all-inclusive — your BLS card, Live Scan, eBooks, and state test fee are included free, with no surprise add-ons. Because pricing and payment-plan options can change by cohort, the current tuition for each schedule is listed on its individual program page.
Where are your CNA classes located? Do you serve Orange County and LA?
Yes. Our campus is at 618 E. Whittier Blvd, La Habra, CA 90631, right on the Orange County / Los Angeles County line. We're a convenient choice for students searching for CNA classes in Orange County or CNA programs in Los Angeles, drawing from Fullerton, Whittier, Brea, Anaheim, Buena Park, and the surrounding area.
Are your CNA classes online or in person?
Our CNA programs use a hybrid format: the theory portion is delivered online so you can study around your schedule, and the clinical/skills portion is completed in person at our La Habra campus and partner facilities. California requires hands-on clinical hours, so a fully-online CNA certification isn't possible — but our hybrid model gives you the flexibility of online learning where it counts.
Do you offer job placement after graduation?
Yes — LGL College offers job-placement assistance to graduates, leveraging our relationships with healthcare facilities throughout Orange County and Los Angeles. Many students receive interviews within weeks of certifying.
