Getting the necessary training from an approved CNA program is an important step in becoming a nursing assistant. These programs are being offered by different institutions like colleges, high schools, as well as healthcare facilities. The state requires that the programs being offered in Colorado should have at least 80 hours of both lectures and skills training. As nursing assistant students, they will learn different nursing skills like vital signs monitoring, catheter care, bed bath, feeding through NGTs, maintaining IV patency, as well as perform emergency procedures.

After their training, they can then apply for the competency examination by sending the necessary paperwork like the completed application form, paying the fees, proof of training, health records, and background check results to Pearson VUE. The applicants must take the exams within 2 years from their submission. If they fail to do so, their application will expire and they will have to apply and submit the paperwork again.
