In general, you usually need some high school education and on-the-job training.
You may also need a college or private institutional program, such as nursing aide, which includes supervised practical training.
Some health care facilities may also require you to complete specialized courses such as cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR), first aid, and food handling/sterile processing.
Most recent entrants have a trade/vocational certificate or community college diploma, and almost 1 in 10 has an undergraduate university degree.
