DT&T CNA Training School Burien, WA

New Process for the Washington Nursing Assistant Exams. Washington State is updating its nursing assistant examination process to increase students’ access to skills testing immediately following graduation. This new workflow saves steps and reduces the time required for testing and final certification. Key Changes to the Exam Order
Skills Test Registration Requirements: This process applies to graduates from any nursing assistant training school, skilled nursing facility, or individuals who hold an Authorization to Test (ATT) letter from the Department of Health (DOH).
⚠️ Important: If you are an outside candidate, please do not call the DT&T school. Instead, reach out directly to the Washington State Board of Nursing (WABON) for guidance.
Step-by-Step Registration Process for DT&T Graduates.
Step 1: Apply for your DOH Credential.
Apply for your nursing assistant-certified (NAC) credential with the Department of Health (DOH). Due to current processing backlogs, the DOH encourages you to apply early. The credential number issued by the DOH will serve as your unique identifier to register for both your state written and skills exams.
Step 2: Create a Credentia Account
Create your account on Credentia365 and verify your email address. Keeping this account ready ensures your final written exam results are processed quickly.
Step 3: Schedule the Skills Test
Step 4: Pass the Skills Test & Register for the Written Exam
Once you pass the skills test, return to the Credentia365 website to schedule your written (or oral) exam.
Step 5: Check Certification Status
After passing the written exam, visit the DOH Provider Credential Search to verify if your official NAC application status has changed to Active
