How to renew your CNA certification
In order to remain on the Registry and to be eligible to work in a licensed Medicaid & Medicare facility, you must meet the requirements for Re-Certification. Federal Regulations require that you must have worked as a CNA for pay under the supervision of a licensed nurse, and a minimum of eight hours within a continuous period of 24 consecutive months from the most recent re-certification date. If you are unable to meet this requirement, you must be retested to remain on the Georgia Nurse Aide Registry. If your certification expires three or more years from date of last re-certification date, then you must take another State approved nurse aide training program and pass the Written/Oral and Skills Competency Examination.
We have attached the Instructions below for your convenience.
