Free HealthCare Training Programs

We offer free, customized non-credit programs in Personal Care Aide, Certified Nurse Aide, and Central Sterile Processing Technician for eligible students through the Eastern Connecticut Healthcare Pipeline. Developed to address the need for skilled healthcare professionals. These short-term training programs are available to unemployed and underemployed workers unable to attend longer-term training. Course curriculum are developed by Three Rivers Community College and Healthcare facilities.

Benefits during the training

Students also receive support from the EWIB-funded programs (Eastern CT Workforce Investment Board) offered at the American Job Centers (AJC), helping them access supportive services while in classroom training to reduce barriers to enrollment and completion. Examples include travel reimbursement, daycare assistance, and required books, tools, and clothing.
