Through a partnership with the Government of Nova Scotia and Nova Scotia Community College, Shannex has created a new pathway to becoming a Continuing Care Assistant.

The Continuing Care Assistant (CCA) Pilot Program is designed to help meet our communities’ need for more elder care in Nova Scotia – faster.

Classes began on April 1st, and 22 students will complete a combination of classroom and practical work for six months to become a CCA. A second class will start in October.

The program provides free tuition, an allowance, and two years of guaranteed employment upon graduation.
