CNA Programs
Nursing assistant training prepares for a state nurse aide competency exam. It is not licensed nurse education.
Schools are listed when they reported CNA-level nursing awards to the U.S. Department of Education (IPEDS) or when we verified a CNA program on their own website. Nursing assistant training is not licensed nurse education; it leads to a state nurse aide registry, not an RN or LPN license.
