The Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) Bridge Program at Madison College is seeking up to four additional students for its fall cohort, which kicks off Monday, August 31, 2026. The eight-week program, taught by LeadingAge Wisconsin member Mike Jones of LindenGrove- New Berlin, is designed for mid-career professionals who want to obtain their nursing home administrator license without completing an additional four-year degree program.
Other licensure requirements include a bachelor's degree and 2,000 hours of practicum work in a skilled nursing facility.
The program has been approved by the State of Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services as meeting the requirements as a specialized course in order to be eligible to sit for the Nursing Home Administrator exam.
The course covers the 4 required areas:
The course is divided into two classes, each lasting four weeks. Each week begins Monday at 8 am. All weekly assignments are due by 11:59 pm on Sunday. Weekly requirements include reading two chapters of the course book, watching the lecture, completing the quiz/assignment, and filling out the 'reflection." Together, the 2 courses are about 40-48 hours of work.
