CNA certification

Published

Hello Allnurses.com, I'm start my pre-reqs for nursing school August 22nd at University of Missouri-Kansas City. Has anyone on here graduated from UMKC or planning on attending. I wanted to know if they do CNA certification at their school after a certain amount of semesters once you've been accepted in nursing school. Thanks in advance :D:D

Probably, I've been reading this forum for a while and many people have said that you can sit and take the CNA test after a semester of nursing school. This obviously varies place to place however.

Thanks for the info as well! I've been needing to ask my adviser about this to! If not, I need to get busy on enrolling into the CNA Program in my area. I'd just much rather be able to sit for the test after my first semester or 2 of NS, than shell out all the extra tuition and book costs for the 3 month CNA program in my city! :)
