02Who can apply to the CNA program?
Applicants should be prepared to meet the program's age or minor-enrollment rules, education and communication requirements, background-check requirements, and required health screenings. Request the current admissions checklist before applying so you know exactly what documentation is needed.

Understanding the CNA path
Learn what the role involves, how training works, and what comes after completion.
01Is the school approved?
Yes. Huduma CNA Training Center is approved by the Washington State Board of Nursing and the Washington Workforce Training and Education Coordinating Board. You can verify Washington nursing-assistant programs through the Board of Nursing's approved-program directory.
02What is a CNA?
A Certified Nursing Assistant provides hands-on daily care — bathing, mobility, feeding, vital signs, and comfort — under the supervision of nurses. It's a meaningful, in-demand role and a common first step into healthcare.
03How long will the program take?
Cohort calendars include the approved classroom, skills-lab, and clinical requirements. Request enrollment information for the current day or evening schedule and confirmed program duration.
04Do I need previous healthcare experience?
The traditional CNA pathway is designed to teach the required foundations, skills, and clinical habits. If you already hold an active Home Care Aide credential, ask admissions whether the CNA bridge pathway is appropriate for you.
05What happens after I complete the program?
Successful program completion prepares eligible students to continue through Washington's nursing-assistant examination and credentialing process. Completing training does not by itself issue the state credential; students must complete the required certification steps.
