Train the Trainer FAQ

+ Is there a test afterward?

No. This course is an 8 hour CE course. Afterward, we only ask that you complete the evaluation for us to turn into ANCC. Remember you get 8 CEUs after completion.

+ Do I get a certificate afterward?

Yes, afterward you will receive a certificate of completion. You can use this certificate to turn into the state along with your resume and nursing license to become an approved CNA Instructor.

+ Can this certificate transfer to or be accepted in another state?

This depends heavily on the state. Our classes are state-specific because each state has different regulations for CNA trainers. Some states require a specific amount of hours of training for a nurse to teach CNA’s. You should check with the governing bodies of the states you would like to transfer between to be sure. State specific links are available on our State Requirements page.

+ Can I start teaching CNA’s right away?

In order to use this certificate to teach CNA’s, you must teach at an approved CNA school. The certificate you receive after this course will be submitted to the state under the program you plan to teach for and then and only then will you become an approved CNA instructor. All CNA instructors MUST be affiliated with an approved school.

If you are in the virtual class, all you need is your computer, word, and excel. If you attend in-person training, you can bring. paper and pen for notes. If you like, you can bring your computer as well to follow along.

+ Does this course teach me how to open my own CNA school?

No. This course is meant to develop your skills as an instructor to effectively teach the curriculum and work in an approved CNA school. Many states require instructors to take a Train the Trainer course to be qualified to teach. Starting a CNA school is a much larger endeavor.

+ What can I do with this certificate after I finish this course?

You have options! You can use this education to apply to work for a nursing home-based CNA school, a technical school CNA program, or you can start your own CNA program.
