Computer-based In-Service Training

These courses are designed to offer a computer-based training (CBT) to satisfy the 24-hour in-service education requirement, which is part of the Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) renewal process (TAC; Title 26; Part 1; Chapter 556; Rule §556.9). "Effective September 1, 2013, a nurse aide renewing a certification must complete at least 24 hours of in-service education every two years that includes training in geriatrics and the care of residents with a dementia disorder, including Alzheimer’s disease."

CNAs may complete these courses in order to renew a listing of active status on the Nurse Aide Registry (NAR).

• These courses are only one of many approved course options (requirements can be fulfilled through a nursing facility or an approved Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation Program).
• Each course satisfies 2 hours toward the 2-year requirement of 24 hours.
• CNAs get 2 hours of credit for each course, as long as they score a minimum of 70% and have a copy of the learning certificate.
• This is a new series of approved courses.

To document successful course completion, participants must print a copy of the course certificate available at the end of the training and keep the certificate for documentation purposes.

Your computer must have the following:

• In order to access the course, your internet browser must be set to allow pop-ups.
• Browser: Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Firefox or Safari. (We suggest you not use Internet Explorer, if possible.)
