An LNA license is the main requirement to work in a state-approved nursing facility. Employers will always look for a license before hiring you. There are two general ways which you can get a license in this state: you can either challenge the NNAAP exam or apply for Endorsement.

LNA Certification through Endorsement

LNAs in other states are known as Certified Nursing Assistants. This process is only available for nursing assistants in other states. Applicants must have a valid certification and a clean record to qualify for endorsement. They must not have any records of patient neglect, abuse, or misappropriation of the patient’s property. All applicants are still required to undergo and pass the national criminal background checks.

Certification through taking the NNAAP Exam

If you have never been a licensed nurse assistant before, then the only option for you to become an LNA is by passing the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program Exam. This exam consists of a multiple-choice knowledge test and a skills evaluation exam. You will only become an LNA if you pass both tests.

To increase your chances of passing both tests as well as make you qualified to apply for the NNAAP exam, you must enroll in a state-approved program. Approved programs comprise of a minimum of 105 hours of training. The hours are divided into 75 hours of classroom lectures and 30 hours of supervised clinical practice. Students are taught how to meet the individual needs of each of their patients properly as well as provide any additional services that might be delegated by the nurses.

Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, nursing students and graduates; LNAs who have expired licenses no more than 2 years; and individuals who completed a CNA training program in another state can also apply for the NNAAP exam. Before they can submit their applications, they must first request for an Authorization to Test from the Vermont Board of Nursing.

National Nurse Aide Assessment Program Examination

The knowledge test is the first part of the NNAAP exam. Candidates have the option to choose whether to take an oral or written exam for the knowledge test. Regardless of what type of test they pair with the skills exam, they will need to pay $130 for the testing fee.

On the day of the exam, please arrive at least 30 minutes before the actual scheduled time to avoid coming late. If you are late for either the written or skill exam you will not be allowed to take the tests and you will not receive a refund. You must also bring a current and valid ID and a copy of your social security card for the pre-test check-in.

The NNAAP exam in this state is conducted by Pearson VUE.
