  • Effective November 2023, Credentia is no longer administering the NA skills exam. The skills exam is embedded within NURS100 and CNA FastTrack and CNA Bridge classes effective January 2024. Credentia will continue administering the written/oral exam.
  • Former CNA FastTrack, CNA Bridge, NURS100 and all others seeking to schedule their NA skills exam can still test at Wenatchee Valley College (or many other sites in Washington).
    • Please visit the Washington State Board of Nursing (WABON) for detailed information about the new testing process and a link to registration.  There are also useful documents that outline the new process.
    • After registering for an exam with WABON, candidates will be directed to the specific test site (Wenatchee Valley College) to pay for the exam ($100).
    • WABON opens exam registration one month at a time. 
    • When an exam date is full, it will no longer appear on the WABON registration site.
    • When a candidate passes the skills exam, they will be eligible to take the written/oral portion administered through Credentia.
