✝️ Course Mission

“At Nina Nurses, we teach with faith, lead with tech, and serve with heart — because the future of nursing is powered by purpose, intelligence, and grace.”

1️⃣ What is a CDPH Continuing Education Provider?

A CDPH Provider is an approved educator authorized by the California Department of Public Health to offer continuing education courses to Certified Nurse Assistants (CNAs) and Home Health Aides (HHAs). Once approved, you can teach your own CE courses, issue certificates, and even train staff at multiple facilities.

2️⃣ Do I need to be a nurse to apply?

No. Your application is stronger if you are a licensed nurse — if your a nurse you must be a licensed nurse (LVN or RN) in good standing with the California Board of Nursing or work with one who will serve as your clinical director. If you are not a nurse you must show strong background in the area of expertise.

3️⃣ Can a facility become a provider?

Absolutely. Many facilities, home health agencies, and nursing homes become CDPH providers to train staff internally, saving thousands each year on outside CE costs.

4️⃣ How long does the CDPH approval process take?

On average, 6–12 weeks after submission. But our templates, examples, and checklists cut that process time in half by ensuring your packet is “approval-ready.”

5️⃣ Can I make money as a CDPH Provider?

Yes! Many providers earn $25–$100 per student per hour. Example:
If you teach 10 CNAs for a 4-hour CE course at $40 each, that’s $400 in half a day.
With your own CE business, the potential for passive income and contracts is limitless.

6️⃣ Is this course approved by the state?

Yes! Nina Nurses Continuing Education is a California CDPH NAC Provider and BRN/BVNPT Continuing Education Provider. You’re learning directly from a state-approved educator who has trained over 500 nurses and healthcare leaders across California.

7️⃣ What happens after I complete the course?

You’ll receive a Certificate of Completion, your customized CDPH Provider Packet, and course creation templates to help you launch your first class within weeks.
