  • WHAT IS THE CNA COURSE COMPLETION REQUIREMENTS?
    • The Arizona CNA certification exam is the test a nurse aide student must pass in order to become eligible for CNA employment and for being listed on the Nurse Aide Registry of Arizona. The CNA certification exam is designed to evaluate the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to safely perform the job of a nursing assistant. The testing consists of two main parts: a written or oral exam and a hands-on, skills examination. A nurse aide candidate who passes both the written and the skills evaluation is eligible for any entry-level nurse aide position. In Arizona, candidates are required to score a minimum of 75% on the written exam which consists of 75 multiple-choice questions, and 80% on the skills exam (without missing any key steps).

There’s this unmistakable energy from the nurses who teach there— Nurse Karla and Saysha Weaver , the two of them somehow manage to be equal parts coach, mentor, and... read more the voice in your head saying, “Don’t second-guess it—you know this.” They don't just teach skills; they turn them into moments. You’ll be fumbling at first, unsure, maybe even a little overwhelmed—and then they step in with this calm, grounded confidence that makes everything click. Suddenly, you’re not just practicing… you’re doing it. Every class feels like you’re being let in on something important, like you’re earning your place step by step. The skills portion, which could easily feel intimidating, becomes something else entirely—like stepping into the spotlight and realizing you’re ready for it. And then there’s the director Rose Marie, who feels less like an administrator and more like the steady presence behind the scenes—the one making sure everything holds together when it matters most. There’s a quiet, unwavering support there that you don’t fully appreciate until you need it—and then it’s everything. I went to two diffrent CNA programs STAR CANYON AND LIFE FORCE and Life Force and both i dropped.Both of these schools followed a similar pattern-confusing instruction, lack of support, and just enough structure to say, “Well, technically we taught you.” It’s like being handed IKEA instructions written by someone who’s never seen a chair. And when it inevitably falls apart, they’re right there like, “Wow, that’s crazy… anyway, that’ll be another payment.” If you plan on making an investment in a CNA program choose AZTTI and don't look back. When things get tough, and they will, AZTTI doesn’t cut the scene—they let you take another shot. No extra charge, no judgment. Just a rare kind of trust that says your story isn’t over yet. In a world where most programs feel transactional, AZTTI feels personal—like someone actually cared how this chapter of your life turns out.

I contacted several CNA programs on the same day due to wanting to get the information in an efficient manner. I work fulltime, and also have family to take care... read more of. It was great to get a quick response to my contact form with detailed instructions of what was needed prior to getting started, the cost, and contact info for any questions that I may have. My instructors all had real world experience, and set the expectation of what it will actually be like upon entering the world of healthcare. Overall after completing the program it was obvious that the staff wants you to leave set up for success.
