Froedtert South and Carthage College, both based in Kenosha, Wis., have partnered to expand the health system’s workforce.
The organizations are offering fully funded certified nurse aide training and guaranteed employment for program graduates, according to a Sept. 5 joint news release.
The Duncan Family CNA Program Scholarship covers the full cost of Carthage’s monthlong CNA training. Each scholarship recipient commits to working at Froedtert Pleasant Prairie (Wis.) Hospital for at least 1,000 hours over a two-year period. Froedtert South hired 13 students from the most recent class.
Since the CNA program launched in January 2024, 182 students have completed training.
The partnership also includes a $5,000 annual scholarship for students in Carthage’s four-year bachelor of science in nursing program. Both scholarships are funded by Tom Duncan, a retired Froedtert South administrator, and Jan Duncan, who served as a speech and language therapist for more than 30 years.
Enrollment remains open for the winter CNA session beginning in January 2026.
