I currently live in Tennessee and am taking CNA classes. When I graduate I am taking the state test. I was wondering if anybody could give me or tell me where I can find information about if Tennessee license will reciprocate in South Carolina.

Hi there! I live in SC. I've never heard of licensing for CNAs, but they can get certification. Where are you planning to move to in SC? I'm not sure about the certification from one state being accepted in SC, but I don't see why not. Some of the hospitals will hire CNAs without a certification but will check you off on some of the tasks. If you're coming anywhere around the Columbia area, let me know & I can get you phone #s so you can call and check with them.

Check with the SCBON. The link is on this site and they have all of the answers. Good luck on your move and on getting a positive answer.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks, I am moving to Charleston AFB. I'm not familiar with SC so I don't know if that is close to Columbia of not. 

You mean CNA certification....CNAs are not licensed

Yea, that's just what my teacher told me to search.
