California permits certain CNAs to challenge to boards to become LVNs if they have completed certain classes. However, the LVN license cannot ever be endorsed or transferred into any other state.
You will need to complete an LPN program in its entirety. No shortcuts exist in attaining your LPN diploma because you are an experienced CNA. Good luck to you!
