Does anyone know and willing to answer my question please?


Hello, I am looking for some information regarding cna certification. I am curious if the cna exam can be challenged in TN or GA. Do any of you lovely people know?
Thank you so much!

It's not allowed to be challenged in TN.
If you are already a CNA, you can transfer your registration with the TN BON.

I am not sure what you mean by challenging the exam. If you mean not taking it at all, then no. If you are a CNA in another state, you can usually transfer your license. If you are in nursing school and have completed a course in Fundamentals, then the state will issue you a challenge letter and you can take the test without actually taking the CNA classes. If you have medic experience in the military, the state will also issue you a challenge letter, again so you can just go take the test without taking the classes.

If you're already a CNA TN does not accept certification from GA I know for sure. But GA accepts TN certification. My instructor in the class that I finished for my CNA went over that with us.
