A complete roadmap to CNA certification success

Introduction to the CNA Role

What CNAs actually do day-to-day in hospitals, nursing homes, and home health. Whether you've been caring for family members or worked in healthcare in another country, see how your experience translates to this rewarding career.

Florida's Challenger Pathway—Your Affordable Shortcut

How to get certified WITHOUT expensive classroom training. Most programs charge $1,200-$2,000. We'll show you how Florida's direct-to-test option lets you skip all that and save money while still getting fully prepared.

What to Expect at Prometric

Take the mystery out of test day. Learn exactly how the written and skills portions work, how they're scored, and what the testing center experience is really like. No more anxiety about "the unknown."

Core CNA Knowledge

Patient rights, communication skills, and the foundational knowledge every CNA needs. If English is your second language, don't worry—we break down the technical terms and medical jargon into plain language.

Infection Control & Handwashing

Handwashing is tested FIRST on your skills exam—and it's where many students lose points on small mistakes. Learn the exact steps in the exact order so you can perform them confidently, even under pressure.

Introduction to the 25 Clinical Skills

Overview of every skill you'll need to demonstrate. See our step-by-step video approach that helps you remember procedures in the right order—so you don't freeze up or forget what comes next.

Built for Working Adults Who Can't Afford to Quit Their Jobs to Go to Class

Since 2009, Florida CNA Online has helped over 2,000 students get certified—most of them working adults over 45 who were juggling jobs, families, and the fear that maybe it was "too late" for them.
It's not too late. And you don't need to spend $1,200+ on classroom training that requires you to show up at set times.
We built this program for people like you:

Working full-time and need to study at night, on lunch breaks, or whenever you can find time

Caring for family while trying to build a career that lets you help others AND earn more

Experienced caregivers who've been doing this work (maybe for years) but need the official certification

Healthcare workers from other countries whose credentials don't transfer but whose experience absolutely matters

Spanish speakers who need support in their language—because a language barrier shouldn't stop you

Anyone who's been told they're "too old" to start something new. (You're not. Our most successful students are 45+.)
What Makes Us Different
Unlike traditional programs, we focus specifically on Florida's challenger pathway—the direct-to-test option that lets you skip expensive classroom training and go straight to the state exam. We teach exactly what Prometric tests. Nothing more, nothing less.

Real stories from students just like you

"I passed on my first try at 52—even with my nerves!"

I was so anxious about the practical exam. I kept thinking I would blank out and forget the steps. But the video lessons broke everything down so clearly that by test day, I knew exactly what to do. I'm working at Baptist Health now making $18/hour, and I still can't believe I did it.

"El programa me ayudó a superar la barrera del idioma"

I was a Personal Support Worker in Canada for 11 years, but my credentials didn't transfer. I was nervous about taking the exam in English—that was my biggest fear. Jaime's team gave me the support I needed, and now I'm certified and working. It's never too late.

Carmen G. - Miami, FL

Certified January 2024

"I studied on my lunch breaks and passed in 2 weeks!"

Between my job and taking care of my mom, I had zero time for classroom training. This program let me study whenever I could—15 minutes here, 30 minutes there. The skills videos were so clear, I felt like I'd practiced each one a hundred times before my test.

Your Questions, Answered

Everything you need to know before getting started
Is this really free? What's the catch?
No catch. The first 6 modules are completely free—no credit card required. We want you to see the quality of our training before you spend a dime. If you love it and want the full program with all 25 skills, practice exams, and our money-back guarantee, you can upgrade for $199 (or $49.75/month). But there's zero pressure.
Is this really free? What's the catch?
This is the #1 fear we hear, and it's exactly what we focus on. Our video lessons show you each skill step-by-step, in the exact order you need to perform them. We teach you how to remember the sequence so you don't blank out under pressure. Many students tell us they felt calm on test day because they'd practiced so many times with our videos. Your hands will remember what your brain forgets.
I'm working full-time. How will I find time to study?
Our students are working adults—most study at night, on lunch breaks, or on weekends. Since everything is online, you can watch a 15-minute lesson whenever you have time. There's no schedule to follow. Go at your own pace. Most students complete the full program in about 20 hours total (1-2 weeks), but you can take longer if needed.
English is my second language. Can I still pass?
Yes. Many of our successful students are Spanish speakers—24% of our students were born outside the US. We offer bilingual support, and our lessons break down medical terms and technical jargon into plain language. The state exam is in English, so we help you learn the terminology you'll need—but you don't have to be fluent to pass. If you can understand this page, you can do this.
I worked in healthcare in another country. Does that experience count?
Your experience absolutely matters—you already understand patient care. 38% of our students have healthcare experience from another country. But unfortunately, foreign credentials don't automatically transfer to Florida. The good news: our program builds on what you already know and focuses specifically on what Florida tests. Many of our students came from Canada, Puerto Rico, and other countries and passed on their first try.
I'm over 45. Is it too late for me?
Absolutely not. 60% of our students are 45+, and they're often our most successful because they bring life experience and real motivation. We've had students in their 50s and 60s pass and start new careers. One student wrote: "It is never too late to achieve your goals." Becoming a CNA can also be the first step to LPN or RN if you want to advance further.
How is this different from expensive classroom programs?
Traditional programs cost $1,200-$2,000 and require weeks of in-person attendance at set times. Our program costs $199, lets you study 24/7 from anywhere, and prepares you for the exact same state exam. You get video demonstrations of all 25 skills, practice tests, and the flexibility to learn while you keep working. Your total investment to become certified is approximately $435 ($199 course + $155 state exam + ~$80 background check).
What happens after I sign up for the free modules?
You'll get instant access—usually within 2 minutes. Check your email for login instructions, and you can start Module 1 immediately. No waiting. No approval process. No phone calls.
What about the background check and fingerprinting? I don't know how that works.
Great question—this confuses a lot of people (48% of our students asked about this). We include guidance on Florida's background check process: where to go, how much it costs (~$80), how to schedule it, and what to expect. You won't be left figuring it out on your own.
Is this course legitimate?
Yes. Our course prepares you for Florida's "Challenger" pathway (E3)—a legitimate route established by the Florida Department of Health. You take the same state exam and earn the exact same CNA certification as someone who completed a $2,000 in-person program. We've been operating since 2009—Florida's longest-running fully online CNA preparation course.
