Red Cross CNA Class

Red Cross CNA class training provides CNA certification via the American Red Cross. It is available in many states, and follows a nationally-recognized Certified Nursing Assistant curriculum. Course hours will vary according to the state and as such clinical requirements may be longer or shorter in a particular state. The Red Cross CNA class uses the requirements of each state.

For the Nurse Assistant Training course participant, successful course completion requires full participation in classroom and skill sessions, as well as successful performance in skill and knowledge evaluations. Due to the nature of the skills in this program, participants may be participating in strenuous activities. If you have a medical condition or disability that may prevent you from taking part in a skill session, or if you have any questions about your ability to participate fully in this course, discuss them with your health-care provider and the appropriate person at the Red Cross chapter before you start your course.

The examination consists of two parts, the Skills Test and the Written Test. The entire exam can be completed in one day and takes approximately 5 1/2 hours. The participant must successfully pass the Skills Test before taking the Written Test. The applicant is notified of the test results on the same day, and upon passing will receive the State Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) certification shortly thereafter.

The following are minimum requirements for all Red Cross C.N.A. participants:

  • Must be 18 years of age or older
  • Cannot have any felony convictions within the last 7 years
  • Must be free of all communicable diseases
  • Cannot be pregnant
  • *Only in the event that your TB screening and/or background check does not clear, you will be able to receive a refund of your payment less the $35 screening fee. Once you have registered, the $35 screening fee is non-refundable

While enrolled in the program, all participants must:

  • Arrive on time.
  • Attend all classes, only 6 missed hours permitted, all missed hours must be made up.
  • Pass final test with score of 80% or higher.

Please note that you will be responsible for transportation to both the classroom and clinical site.
Wear comfortable clothing. (Some classes involve kneeling and lying on the floor.)

Returning C.N.A. testing only: Payment in full is due 1 week prior to the date of the state exam. We are sorry, but refunds are not available. Fee for testing only is $100.

The Red Cross CNA class is ideal because it helps encourage nursing assistants to become nurses and it helps provide more time for nurses to focus on their primary responsibilities.

    I am very interested in taking this course. I have had my CNA certificate for four years, but it expired in May of this year and I am only missing the exemption date by two months…now I have to re-take everything. Not only am I kicking myself, but I am trying to do it as cheaply as possible. Is there a scholarship or grant with this program? Could you please email me all of the information? I tried looking it up on the Red Cross website, and they had no information about it. I live in the Grand Rapids, MI area if that helps with what kind of information you pass my way. Thank you very much! :)
