Question 1

What is WIOA?

Accepted Answer

WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) is a federal program administered by regional workforce offices. If your local office approves your application, WIOA may cover the cost of healthcare training. Approval is decided by the WIOA office, not by Winder CNA Training. Eligibility is based on factors like employment status, income, and prior education.

Question 2

How do I find my WIOA office in Georgia?

Accepted Answer

Your WIOA office is based on the Georgia county you live in. Use the finder on this page to pick your county and see your office's name, phone number, email, website, and application steps.

Question 3

Does Winder CNA Training accept WIOA funding?

Accepted Answer

Winder CNA Training is on the Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL) for multiple Georgia WIOA regions, including Northeast Georgia, Atlanta Regional, East Central Georgia, and Georgia Mountains. If your local office approves your application, you can use that funding to register with us. We don't decide whether you're approved — your office does.

Question 4

What if my county isn't served by an office Winder CNA is approved with?

Accepted Answer

If your county's WIOA office isn't on our approved list, WIOA isn't an option for training with us — but we offer other ways to pay, including weekly payment plans on individual programs and pathway bundles that combine multiple certifications at a reduced price.

Question 5

What programs can WIOA potentially pay for at Winder CNA Training?

Accepted Answer

If you're approved by your WIOA office, eligible programs may include the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) program, Certified Medication Aide, Phlebotomy Technician (CPT), EKG Technician (CET), Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA), and BLS / CPR certification. The specific programs covered depend on your office's approved training list and your individual eligibility.
