CNA Program FAQ: Want to start working before your NAC certification is active? You may be able to!
Washington allows nursing assistant students to work as a Nursing Assistant-Registered (NAR) while pursuing their Nursing Assistant-Certified (NAC) credential. This can be a great way to begin gaining hands-on experience and earning income while completing the certification process.
How it works:
Enroll in an approved CNA/NAC training program and begin your training.
You can start applying for jobs while you're in school. An employer may choose to hire you before you are NAC-certified.
If you are hired by a nursing home/SNF before becoming NAC-certified, you must apply for NAR registration within 3 days of hire.
Nursing-home employment is subject to the federal 120-day certification timeline.
Complete your Ready Set Scrubs CNA training and competency evaluation, then complete the state certification testing process.
Once you have your NAC certification, you no longer need to maintain NAR for that purpose.
Find out more information about the NAR Pathway on the WABON website.
