Here’s How it Works:

After finishing a North Carolina state-approved training course, you can Create an online account with Credentia’s CNA365 system.The Credentia CNA365 system makes online registration quick and easy, and much faster than mailing a paper application.

To create a CNA365 account, go to www.credentia.com/test-takers/ncna. Click the “CNA365 Login” button on the top of the North Carolina nurse aide website.

You can pay by credit card or pre-paid credit card (American Express, MasterCard, Visa, ACH/ electronic check, or electronic voucher). Fees are non-refundable and non-transferable once you’ve paid.
For exams at test center locations, you’ll need to make an online reservation using a laptop. Using your phone or a tablet is not recommended. You need to make your reservation at least ten (10) calendar days before the test date.
For written or Oral online exams, you can schedule an exam as early as one day following registration, depending on exam availability.
You will need to complete your online application in CNA365, but you can ask someone from your nurse aide training program or facility employer for help in completing the application. If you need help or have any questions about the application process, contact a support representative at 888-204-6249
