If you live in New York and have decided you want to become a certified nursing assistant, you will need to complete a training program that has met all state standards and then pass the necessary exam for certification. Nursing assistant training programs can be found at a variety of education facilities throughout New York. However, many nursing care facilities and other healthcare facilities offer training on-site. In New York, the Prometric Company maintains and administers the competency exam.
When you train directly at a healthcare facility, you can complete your certification exam at that location. You will need to wait to be notified of the date and time of your exam. If you did not train at a healthcare facility or are unable to take your test there, you will contact Prometric to request that an exam be scheduled for you. Within a couple weeks of your request, you will be notified of the details (including date and time) of your certification test. No matter where you complete your test, you will need to take a written portion and a skills portion. You cannot be granted certification until you complete both parts of that test. At that point, you can start on the path to working as a CNA.
