NURSE AIDE IN-SERVICE EDUCATION


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.)
 * Printer: the ability to print hard copies of your learning certificate.
