Home health aide training in Washington

37 home health aide programs with costs, results and funding that can make them free

21 schools offer these home health aide programs, and Washington has approved every one for workforce funding. Each shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did. One school runs 17 of these 37 programs, so the typical figures lean heavily on its prices and results.

Home health and personal care aides keep an eye on the condition of people with disabilities or long-term illness and help them with everyday tasks. Aides who work for certified home health or hospice agencies must finish formal training and pass a standardized test, and states may add their own rules.1 For those agencies, federal rules require at least 75 hours of aide training, with at least 16 hours in a classroom before at least 16 hours of supervised practice.2

In Washington, 15 of the 37 programs take students without a high school diploma, 18 ask for a diploma or equivalent and 4 ask for earlier courses first.

By kind, the 37 programs here are home care aide course (32 programs), home health aide course (4 programs) and personal care aide or direct care worker course (1 program).

How to pay for home health aide training in Washington

WIOA funding can pay for home health aide training in Washington

Every program on this page is approved for it. Whether you qualify, how much your local area pays and how to apply are on our page Does WIOA pay for job training?

Financial aid and grants for home health aide training

Most students can get federal student aid for college, career school or trade school. A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, usually doesn't have to be repaid. Ask the school whether its program qualifies.78

GI Bill for home health aide training

Veterans, service members and qualified dependents can use GI Bill benefits for non-college training programs.9

The program list does not show which programs accept these. Ask the school.

Where the Washington home health aide program numbers come from

Which Washington home health aide programs are on this list?

These are the home health aide programs Washington approved for WIOA funding (public workforce funding under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act), as reported to the US Department of Labor for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Each state keeps its approved programs on an eligible training provider list (ETPL).10 The list here covers programs approved as of June 30, 2025. Schools that never applied for approval are missing, so this is a part of what Washington offers.

How the prices and results of Washington home health aide programs are measured

Prices are tuition and required fees for someone paying without workforce funding, as the school reported them; check the current price with the school. Results describe students who left each program in recent years, so they are no guarantee, and the yearly earnings are the reported quarter times four, an estimate. A program without a "Trained with WIOA funding" line may still take WIOA students. Where a field was left empty or withheld, the page says "Not reported", and "Left out" where a figure was filed but failed one of our checks; nothing is estimated to fill a gap. Where the numbers come from explains each figure in full.
