Terms & Conditions

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of www.praisemed.org (the "Site") and your relationship with Praisee Medical Career Institute ("Praisee Medical," "the School," "we," "us," or "our").

​

By using the Site, creating an account, booking a course, or enrolling in a program, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

​

These Terms are not your enrollment agreement. If you enroll in a training program, you will sign a separate written enrollment agreement and receive a School and Program Information Form. Those documents govern your training. Where they conflict with these Terms, those documents control.

​

2. Who We Are

Praisee Medical Career Institute is a healthcare career training school located at 20 Marshall Street, Irvington, New Jersey 07111.

​

The School holds the following State of New Jersey approvals:

  • Private career school Certificate of Approval — issued jointly by the NJ Departments of Labor & Workforce Development and Education, 

  • CNA program approval — NJ Department of Health, No. [INSERT]

  • CHHA program approval — NJ Board of Nursing, No. 2026-0930

  • CMA program approval — [INSERT ISSUING BODY AND NUMBER, OR DELETE THIS LINE]

 

3. Eligibility

To enroll in a training program, you must:

  • Be at least [18] years of age, or [AGE] with written parent/guardian consent

  • Meet the admission requirements for your chosen program

  • Provide accurate and complete information during enrollment

  • Be able to complete a criminal background check and health clearance where the program or a clinical partner requires it

 

Providing false or incomplete information is grounds for denial of admission or dismissal without refund beyond what the refund policy requires.

 

To use the Site's booking or member account features, you must be at least 13 years old.

 

4. Programs Offered

We currently offer:

Program Listed Tuition Status

CNA Certification $1,600Enrolling

CMA: Certified Medication Aide Program $750Enrolling

HHA Training $600 Enrolling

CPR Training $100 Booking open

 

Tuition shown on the Site is for the course of instruction only. Unless expressly stated in your enrollment agreement, tuition does not include:

  • State certification examination fees

  • Criminal background check and fingerprinting fees

  • Textbooks, uniforms, scrubs, or equipment

  • Physical examination, TB testing, immunizations, or drug screening

  • State registry or licensing application fees

 

We will disclose all required fees in writing before you enroll.

 

Program availability and pricing are subject to change. A course listed on the Site is not an offer to enroll until we confirm your enrollment in writing.

 

5. No Guarantee of Certification or Employment

This is the most important section of these Terms. Please read it carefully.

Praisee Medical Career Institute provides instruction and training. We do not control, and cannot guarantee:

  • That you will pass any state certification or competency examination

  • That you will be placed on any state registry

  • That you will be offered employment, or employment at any particular wage

  • That any clinical site, employer, or state agency will accept you

 

State certification is granted by the State of New Jersey, not by us. Eligibility depends on factors outside our control, including your examination performance, your criminal background check results, your health clearance, and your immigration or work authorization status.

​

No statement made by any instructor, admissions representative, or staff member — verbally or in writing — creates a guarantee of certification, licensure, registry placement, or employment. If someone tells you otherwise, it is unauthorized and not binding on the School.

​

Completion of a program is not a promise of any outcome. It is a certificate of completion of instruction.

About our state approvals. The Site displays the School's New Jersey approvals. Those approvals mean the School is authorized to operate and that our programs meet state requirements — which is what makes a graduate eligible to sit for the applicable state examination. State approval of a program does not guarantee that any individual student will be found eligible, pass an examination, or be certified.

 

6. Enrollment, Tuition, and Payment

Enrollment. Enrollment is confirmed only when we accept your application in writing, and you sign an enrollment agreement.

Payment. Tuition and fees are due according to the schedule in your enrollment agreement. Payments made through the Site are processed by a third-party payment processor. We do not store full payment card details.

​​

​

Non-payment. If your account becomes past due, we may suspend your participation, withhold your certificate of completion and transcripts, and decline to submit you for state examination until the balance is paid.

​

Third-party sponsors. If an employer, agency, or workforce program is paying your tuition, you remain responsible for any balance that sponsor does not pay.

​

7. Refunds and Cancellation

Refunds are governed by our Refund Policy, which is a separate document and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

 

8. Attendance, Conduct, and Dismissal

Students are expected to:

  • Meet the attendance requirements stated in the enrollment agreement and required for state program approval

  • Behave professionally toward instructors, classmates, clinical staff, and patients

  • Follow all safety, infection control, and patient privacy rules

  • Comply with the policies of any clinical facility where they are placed

 

We may suspend or dismiss a student for academic failure, excessive absence, unsafe conduct, dishonesty, harassment, violence, substance use, breach of patient confidentiality, or removal by a clinical site.

Dismissal does not waive the refund calculation required by the applicable New Jersey rule.

 

9. Clinical Training

Programs requiring clinical hours depend on placement with partner healthcare facilities. Those facilities set their own requirements, which may include background screening, drug testing, immunization records, TB clearance, and identification.

We cannot guarantee placement at any particular facility. If a clinical partner declines to accept you, we will make reasonable efforts to arrange an alternative but cannot guarantee one.

 

10. Website Accounts

If you create a member account on the Site:

  • You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential

  • You are responsible for activity that occurs under your account

  • You must notify us promptly of any unauthorized use

  • We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms

  • Impersonate any person or entity

  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site or its systems

  • Scrape, harvest, or bulk-download Site content

  • Interfere with the Site's operation or security

 

12. User Content

​

14. Third-Party Services and Links

The Site is hosted on the Wix platform and uses third-party services for booking, payment processing, and email. The Site also links to our social media profiles and to external websites.

​

We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability, or practices of third-party services or sites. Your use of them is governed by their own terms.

16. Limitation of Liability

 

To the fullest extent permitted by New Jersey law, Praisee Medical Career Institute and its officers, instructors, and employees will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including lost wages, lost employment opportunity, or lost profits, arising from your use of the Site or participation in a program.

​

Our total liability for any claim relating to a training program will not exceed the tuition you actually paid for that program.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under New Jersey law, including liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or personal injury caused by our negligence.​

 

17. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Praisee Medical Career Institute against claims, damages, and reasonable attorneys' fees arising from your violation of these Terms, your violation of law, or your infringement of another party's rights.

 

18. Complaint Resolution

If you have a complaint about the School, a program, an instructor, or a billing matter, contact us first at admission@praisemed.org or (732) 723-8973. We will acknowledge your complaint and work with you to resolve it.

 

Why we have this procedure

Praisee Medical Career Institute is a New Jersey approved private career school. State rules require every approved school to maintain a written student complaint resolution procedure and to publish it. This is ours.

​

We would rather hear about a problem than have you carry it. Raising a complaint will not affect your standing, your grades, your clinical placement, or how you are treated by staff. Retaliation against a student for filing a complaint is prohibited.

 

What this procedure covers

Use this procedure for any concern about:

  • Instruction, curriculum, or an instructor

  • Grading, testing, or evaluation of your skills

  • Attendance records or scheduling

  • Clinical placement

  • Tuition, fees, billing, or refunds

  • Staff conduct or communication

  • Facilities, equipment, or safety

  • Discrimination, harassment, or accommodation requests

  • Anything else about your experience as a student here

 

Step 1 — Talk to us informally

Who: Your instructor, or the Office Manager

Timeframe: We aim to respond within 2 business days

Most issues are resolved fastest by raising them directly. Speak with your instructor, or stop by the office at 20 Marshall Street. You can also call (732) 723-8973 or email admission@praisemed.org.

You are not required to try this step first. If the concern involves your instructor, or you would rather not raise it in person, go straight to Step 2.

 

Step 2 — File a formal written complaint

Who reviews it: Light Ezechibueze, Office Manager, is the designated staff person responsible for overseeing student complaints.

How to file:

  • Email — admission@praisemed.org with "Student Complaint" in the subject line

  • In person — request a Student Complaint Form at the front office

  • Mail — Praisee Medical Career Institute, Attn: Student Complaints, 20 Marshall Street, Irvington, NJ 07111

What to include:

  • Your full name and program

  • The date the issue occurred

  • What happened, in your own words

  • Who was involved

  • What outcome you are asking for

  • Any documents, emails, or receipts that help

Timeframes:

StageTimeframe

We acknowledge receipt in writingWithin 3 business days

We investigate and issue a written decisionWithin 15 business days of receipt

If we need longer, we tell you why and give a new dateBefore day 15

The written decision will state what we found, what we decided, and what we will do about it.

Every complaint is documented in writing and kept in your student file.

 

Step 3 — Appeal

If you are not satisfied with the Step 2 decision, you may appeal.

Who reviews it: Dominion Ezechibueze, COO, reviews all appeals. The COO does not decide Step 2 complaints, so your appeal is reviewed by someone who has not already ruled on it.

How to appeal: Submit a written appeal to admission@praisemed.org, marked "Appeal," or deliver it to the front office.

Deadline to appeal: Within 10 business days of the date on the Step 2 written decision.

What to include: A copy of the Step 2 decision, and a short explanation of why you believe it was wrong or incomplete. New information is welcome.

Timeframes:

StageTimeframe

We acknowledge the appeal in writing Within 3 business days

The COO issues a written decision Within 15 business days of receiving the appeal

The COO's decision is the School's final decision.

 

Step 4 — Escalate to the State

If your complaint is not resolved to your satisfaction after Step 3, you may take it to the State of New Jersey. You may also contact these agencies at any point — you do not have to finish our internal process first.
