Facility-based training programs must include a mandatory sixteen hours of instruction prior to a nurse aide student's interaction with a nursing facility resident.

Nurse aide programs offered by community colleges, private schools, or vocational centers have to provide thirty-two hours of instruction designed to cover the same topics listed above.
