CNA classes in DC

CNA classes in DC are subject to accreditation under federal guidelines, but greatly exceed the national minimum by requiring their students to complete at least 120 hours of training. Including the 45 required hours of hands-on clinical training, this usually equates to 6 to 24 weeks worth of study for full-time students. The standard admission requirements for these certified nursing assistant courses dictate that applicants must have a high school diploma or GED certificate, have proof of a negative result on a recent TB test and clear a criminal background check.

Becoming a CNA in Washington, D.C. requires a program graduate to pass the NNAAP certification exam within 24 months of completing his or her training. If the individual is unable to pass both halves of this two-part exam before the two-year period expires, he or she will be required to repeat all previous training. To secure employment in the District of Columbia, it is required that a CNA be listed in the District of Columbia Nurse Aide Registry.

Due to high demand for nurses aides in the nation’s capitol, there are many accredited CNA classes in DC to choose from.
