What Active Nursing Assistant Training of Clear Lake does

Active Nursing Assistant Training of Clear Lake is a private, for-profit vocational school headquartered in Seabrook, Texas. Founded in July 2014 by Brenda Manning, MSN, RN, the school operates a single campus at 2511 East NASA Parkway, Suite 100 & 102, and is legally held under Proactive CNA, LLC, of which Manning is the single-member owner. The institution is purpose-built for entry-level healthcare workforce development in the Clear Lake sub-market of the Houston metropolitan area.

The school's primary offering is a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) training program consisting of 100 hours of instruction delivered over five weeks, priced at $900 in tuition plus $300 in fees, plus adjacent courses in phlebotomy ($525), Patient Care Technician preparation ($400), and CPR certification ($65). All instruction is delivered in-person through classroom and clinical components, with no digital learning platform or technology-mediated instruction layer. The school holds Texas Workforce Commission approval and is a NATCEP-approved nurse aide training site; it additionally operates as an on-site National Healthcareer Association (NHA) testing center and Prometric test site, allowing students to complete certification exams at the same facility.

The business model is direct-to-consumer: students enroll individually and pay tuition, with secondary channel volume driven by employer referrals from regional hospitals, nursing homes, and home health agencies. Revenue is generated entirely through tuition and ancillary course fees, and no external equity, debt, or grant funding is referenced in the available material. Operating cadence is anchored by a published multi-cohort annual schedule.
