National Caregiver Certification Course (NCCC) – $250

National Caregiver Certification Course covers the core essential areas of caregiving that include basic supervision, personal care, behavior management and caring for residents unable to direct self-care such as those with Alzheimer’s and Dementia.

The fundamental idea behind the training course is not so much to cover ‘every’ aspect of caregiving. Rather, it is our intent to provide you with the most relevant and useful information that you should know before you begin a career as a caregiver. This is a terrific starter course for anyone wanting to break into the caregiver field.

Price: $250 (Naira equivalent will be communicated to you when we receive your order)
