I was thinking, ‘Oh my God, after so many years out of the classroom, how am I going to cope with full-time education?’ My family encouraged me and said, ‘Mom, you can do it, just get started. It’s what you love, it’s what you want to do, so get started.’ I checked online, and then a friend of mine told me about Stenberg. After reading up on the topics covered in the program and learning that Stenberg offered a 100% employment guarantee for their Health Care Assistant program graduates, I enrolled. When I started the program, I was a bit scared. One of the things that I was scared about was my age. When I went to the first class and noticed that most of the students there were younger than my eldest son, I was like, ‘Oh no, how am I going to keep up with these kids?’ But my instructor encouraged me to get my priorities straight and go after what I wanted.
