CNA to Caregiver Bridge

For the currently licensed Arizona CNA student, the NCIA Board allows for a waiver of classroom hours. Since the CNA student must take and pass the Arizona State Written Exam to become an Assisted Living Caregiver, your classroom experience is shortened but you will still cover all the curriculum through competency exams, and only 16 hours of class covering Medication Management. This approach is called the CNA Bridge. Students will complete the classroom hours on 1 weekend, Saturday and Sunday, or 3 weekdays, Monday and Tuesday and Friday.
