If you want to work in Missouri as a nursing assistant then you must have a CNA certification and be registered on the state’s NAR. Certifications are only given to those who were able to comply with the Federal and State regulations in training and testing. Getting your name on the Missouri CNA Registry is by passing the license exams.

One way of being able to apply for the exams is by completing a state-certified training course. These courses take about 4-6 months to complete, depending on which course you enroll in. To be accepted you must be at least 18 years old (or enrolled in a high school vocational class), not have any disqualifying convictions, and not be on the state EDL or employee disqualification list. The course is made up of 75 hours of theory classes and another 100 hours of clinical exposure. When you are in the clinical area, you will be under the care of a certified NA clinical supervisor.

To graduate from a course, you will need to take the final exams, which is composed of a written and a skills demonstration. Even if you completed the required number of hours, if you were not able to take and pass the exams, your training will still be considered incomplete. The state will give you a maximum of 6 months to get back to the course. If you fail to do this, then you must retake a new course from the beginning.
