"One of my hopes would be if schools could be very stringent and really look closely at their curriculum and who they're letting through into internships and beyond and graduating. I've heard of at least one program that has changed grades—and this is speaking to CNAs not lab techs—but I have somebody who works for me that teaches at a school, and grades have been changed to get somebody through the program. It's a huge disservice. But I've also hired somebody who really never should have made it through. This person chose the absolute wrong career, and it broke my heart because it's a very nice person. But, you know, they just couldn't cut it in the lab." Metro
