Jonathan Eggleston
School Administrator and Certified Expert in Healthcare
Hi, my name is Jonathan and I have been running a home care agency for seven years, and I can truly say I’ve been there! We’ve hired many individuals who would have been great caregivers, but for various reasons never made it to the end of the coursework. and others who completed the coursework, but who weren’t able to pass the state test.
trying to figure out what was going on, I asked them about their experiences. Here’s what they told me.
“It was so boring, that I could hardly make myself do it”- Ian
“It was OK, but I felt like I was doing it all on my own, it’s not like a normal class where you can interact with people” -Shyanne
So, when I set out to build a program for my staff, I wanted a program that people would really finish, not just start. A program that is fun and highly interactive, but really drills down on the essentials. A program that gives students of all different learning styles the tools they need to pass the state test and reach their potential.
