For many individuals, a one-day CNA prep course can be enough to learn the 22 clinical skills tested on the Florida CNA state exam. These courses are designed to focus directly on exam-required skills and provide efficient, hands-on instruction.
It’s important to understand that completing a prep course alone does not grant a CNA license. To become licensed in Florida, you must still pass the Florida CNA state exam and complete a Level 2 criminal background check.
Florida does not require a specific number of hours in a state-approved CNA training program before taking the exam. This means anyone in Florida is allowed to challenge the CNA state exam.
One-day CNA prep courses typically offer:
- Hands-on practice with the clinical skills tested on the exam
- Guidance with exam registration
- An overview of the test format and what to expect on exam day
If a one-day course feels too fast-paced or intense, other fast-track options are also available for those who prefer a slightly slower learning pace.
A one-day CNA prep course may be ideal for individuals with prior caregiving experience, college students, fast learners, or those accustomed to accelerated learning environments. It can also be a great option for people in remote areas of Florida who are able to travel to CNA Kwik Track in Lake Mary to take advantage of the one-day course offering.
In addition to hands-on training, participants receive a study guide and access to instructional videos to reinforce learning and support exam preparation.
