Katie Grimm and Jennifer Powers saw a need for the training of caregivers in Nevada. As a result, MÁJEN was started in 2001, initially offering certification training for caregivers working in Assisted Living Facilities. Course offerings included Medication Management Certification and First Aid & CPR. In 2005, a course in Medication Management for Supported Living Arrangements was added, followed by Juvenile Detention Agencies and Foster Care. Medication Management Training was initially approved by HCQC in February 2001 and added to our CPE license in September 2016.

In 2014, Nursing Assistant Training was added to our course offerings. The Nursing Assistant course was approved by Nevada State Board of Nursing (NSBN) and Commission of Postsecondary Education (CPE) in September 2014. On September 1, 2015, MÁJEN was awarded a full term license from CPE.

Chris Powers joined us as a First Aid and CPR instructor in 2014, and in 2019 as partner of MÁJEN with Jennifer Powers.

Like our students, MÁJEN is moving forward and looking for new opportunities to grow.
