NSCAP offers daytime and evening ESOL classes for adult immigrants who want to improve their English skills and find career and higher education opportunities in the United States. These classes help learners build confidence and develop the communication skills they need to thrive at work, home and in the community. Students will also improve their basic technology skills. All classes are Hybrid: partly in-person and partly online.  All classes are FREE. Click below to learn more about our classes. 

This project is funded by a grant from the Massachusetts Department of Education – Adult Community Learning Services unit. 

Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) Training

NSCAP offers Certified Nurse Aide Training with English support to non-native speakers of English interested in the medical field. Students must be authorized to work in the US and have strong English skills. CNA classes help learners master the health care skills and knowledge and sharpen the English language skills needed to pass the Massachusetts CNA Licensing exams. These classes are free and are run in partnership with Essex North Shore Agricultural and Technical School. Click below to learn more about this class.

Home Health Aide Training

Our Home Health Aide training program prepares ESOL students to become certified HHAs. Students need to have an interest in working as an HHA and have current work authorization in the US. English support and childcare/transportation assistance are provided. Career development and job assistance are available upon completion of program.

This project is funded by the Senator Kenneth J. Donnelly Workforce Success Grant (Workforce Competitiveness Trust Fund FY’24-25 Appropriation).
