David Courtney is scrubbing his way to a new career, one finger at a time.
"You scrub your nails with a brush 30 times, then everything else 20 times," the soaped-up North Wildwood resident explained as he and classmates prepped in their surgical technician class at Atlantic Cape Community College's new Health Professions Institute in Atlantic City.

A licensed practical nurse, Courtney jumped at the chance to train to work in an operating room. The full-time 11-month program offers classroom and clinical experience.
