customer, R.
I joined this site as it was a compilation of resources that could not be found online through convention means. It also provided access to CRNA mentorship which I did not have. This site is now charging for features (mock interviews, document review, etc) that were free only a month before (unannounced change). I believe the intent of this is to provide SRNAs an option to make money for consultation services to perspective CRNAs while reducing the time investment from the founder. Discussion forum was also removed without notice. Reference materials and links are often to their personal associates (apps, etc). Each day seems like more of a cash grab, funded by RNs dreaming of career advancement to a field that (in reality) most of them will never be able to study. Transparency is needed as the site feels more and more like a racket amongst a small group of CRNAs & SRNAs. There are some features that are truly valuable (interview videos, etc) but it is very disheartening to see a shift towards giving less and less in the form of included services to their members. Their value of membership is diminishing while they place high values on what is provided ($20+ to watch a single recorded webcam discussion if nonmember for example) therefore I cannot rate these services more than 3/5 at this time. Exchanging money for mentorship does not sit well with me.

Dear CustomerRN, We are so sorry to hear you feel this to be true of our mentoring program. We apologize for the misunderstanding that our services ( essay, resume and mocks) were included because these services were always at an additional cost and only available to current students. The founder has offered free mock interviews with an exchange of that mock interview to being shared among her community for fellow aspiring students to benefit from. The founder of CRNA School Prep Academy, Jenny Finnell, was doing all of these services, (mock interviews, essay, resumes, one on one calls) for her students until it became clear she did not have the time to adequately help all of her students. CRNA School Prep Academy is now over 550 students strong. In order to keep serving our students we brought in 5 talented and passionate SRNA’s and 1 anesthesia faculty member who help provided these services in a timely manner. We appreciate your feedback about the forum because it is still active. We just updated our dashboard to make services easier for students to find but possibly in the process made the forum less accessible. We will look into this problem as soon as possible! CRNA School Prep Academy currently does not have any affiliate relationships with apps other than Amazon for recommended books and resources that are tried and true to help you along your journey to become a CRNA. We are required to place disclaimers for the items that are linked to an affiliate account. We now do monthly workshops that count towards CERPS for CCRN renewal. We do allow non-students to take advantage of these workshops for a small additional fee to make it fair to our paying members. We are currently working on getting accredited so we can offer CE’s for these workshop in the future through the AACN. These workshops are presented by anesthesia faculty members and CRNA’s who have the students best interest at hand. We do dedicate a lot of our time and own resources into preparing and delivering these courses. We would be happy to refund your membership in full! Please reach out to [email protected] to request your refund. We would like nothing more than to make things right for you. We have the free Facebook community (I.C.U. Dreaming About Anesthesia by CRNA School Prep Academy) that you can join for free mentoring towards your dream. Cheers to your future! Kindest regards, Jenny and CRNA School Prep Academy team!

Jenny and CRNA School Prep Academy have already been such a huge help in my journey towards my dream of becoming a CRNA. The program has such amazing resources, including mock interviews, resume and CV help, webinars, and so much more. Even just the community created on social media of fellow members and staff had been spectacular. When I doubt myself, I come here and know that I’ve got this. And there is help out there. What a godsend.

Jenny has created an invaluable resource for aspiring SRNAs. The site has so many different categories and ways to test your knowledge. Her mock interview process helped me tremendously during my interview.
