Testimonials

Finished the MA program here and let me tell you, Ms. Winnie is the most amazing instructor I've ever had. She is so funny, stern, and thorough when it comes to learning every concept and competency. Learning from her made me more motivated to push through any mental blocks I had. I wish there were more instructors like her in every school. Will definitely miss being in the program.

Lindsay G.Chula Vista, CA

I took a 22 day CNA course here for prerequisite for nursing school! Ms. Maggie and Mr. Michael are amazing teachers. They're kind but also push you out of your comfort zone to make sure you're prepared. They really care about their students and explaining the material. I made some amazing friends/classmates, and we all had each others back. I would definitely recommend Dalrada to anyone who is looking to get certified in the healthcare field. They are also offering an LVN program which I know many previous CNA students will be attending back for that new program. I also felt very prepared for the state exam!

Bella L.Del Cerro, San Diego, CA

I've taken their CNA course and when I decided to come back to the medical field for work I knew I would go to IHG again. Their programs are worth the effort and money as I felt extremely confident testing and taking the skills learned into real life work experience in facilities. They're fast paced, goal oriented, and, in my opinion, a good investment in yourself.
