CNA Classes in Missouri by City
The state of Missouri requires you take a CNA course that consists of 75 hours of health care theory, 100 hours of on the job training, and the completion of a 2 part certification exam. Upon completion of these requirements the nursing assistant receives their certification. The entire portion of the CNA course must be completed within a 6 month period.

The qualifications to enroll in a CNA class are that you are 18 years or older, not listed on the state of Missouri disqualification list, and not found guilty of certain classifications. If you are hired as a nursing assistant and do not have your certification you have 4 months from your hire date to take the necessary classes and become certified. Before taking the certification exam you need to show that you have successfully completed Fundamentals of Nursing and a clinical rotation with a passing grade. In addition you must have a valid address and phone number where you can be reached along with a copy of your social security card.
