This learning plan is designed for caregivers who have already completed Orientation & Safety training and need to complete the remaining requirements to become a certified Home Care Aide (HCA) in Washington State.

Learning Plans 3–6 are partial training pathways that allow students to apply previously completed training toward the 75-hour HCA requirement, helping them avoid repeating coursework and complete certification more efficiently.

This option is ideal for caregivers who prefer a more interactive learning experience and want to complete their required Mental Health and Dementia training through live, instructor-led virtual classes.

This Learning Plan Includes:

• Core Basic training (excluding Orientation & Safety)

• In-person skills lab for hands-on practice

• Mental Health Level 1 (live virtual Zoom class)

• Dementia Level 1 (live virtual Zoom class)

• Core Basic review and final exam

Includes In-Person Skills Labs with locations available in Spokane, Olympia, Mountlake Terrace, and Vancouver.​
