Register using your legal name and current contact information. Review the exam scope before starting: resident care routines, safety and infection prevention, communication, documentation, reporting, and Tennessee CNA scope of practice. You may request reasonable testing accommodations before beginning the exam according to the academy or employer testing process. The exam is completed online and retained in the learning record according to academy record-retention policy. Results may be shared with the candidate, sponsoring employer, training partner, or workforce program only as authorized by the candidate or applicable program agreement. Do not submit or disclose protected health information. A passing result indicates successful completion of this workforce skills certification exam only; it is not a promise of employment and does not replace Tennessee Nurse Aide Registry requirements or employer competency validation.

Who should apply

This intermediate workforce certification exam is intended for applicants who can reasonably perform or explain CNA-level workplace decisions in a Tennessee care setting. Eligible applicants should meet at least one of the following: completion of a nurse aide training program; current or previous CNA or nursing assistant work experience; supervised long-term care, rehabilitation, hospital, home care, or assisted living support experience; or enrollment in a workforce program preparing for CNA employment. Applicants must be able to read workplace scenarios, select safe actions, understand standard precautions, recognize changes that must be reported, and distinguish CNA responsibilities from licensed nurse responsibilities. Applicants must agree to independent testing, truthful representation of experience, and confidentiality of resident information.

Evidence to prepare

For this standalone skills exam, practical evidence consists of the completed online exam attempt, item-level score record, section-level diagnostic scores, identity and independent-work attestation, and any approved accommodation record. No clinical log, resident record, photo, video, or employer document is required. If a sponsor requests additional verification, acceptable supporting evidence may include a training completion note, supervisor confirmation of relevant work exposure, or current/past CNA-related employment verification, but such evidence must not include protected health information. Exam records should be retained according to academy policy and may be used for audit, appeals, or workforce reporting in de-identified or authorized form.

Access policy: This certification is free. Submit the application to unlock the exam immediately; a passing result remains subject to final review.
