I would check with your school/program and see what they want you to have, but, in my experience over the years, CPR is CPR -- there's only one "level" of CPR class, and the nurses, CNAs, etc., all take the class together.

well, when i did my CNA i had the American Heart Association CPR/BLS for health care professional. i think that's the most commonly accepted CPR for health care personnels. i'd agree with the above poster to double check with your program :)
