CNA (Certified Nurse Aide) Training
Build the foundational skills for patient care.
Our Nurse Aide (NA) Training Program provides the complete 100-hour curriculum required under state guidelines to sit for the Texas CNA Certification Exam. The program is structured into two seamless parts: Part I is a self-paced 60-hour online Computer-Based Training (CBT) offered through TXHHS, and Part II is a 40-hour (2-week) hands-on in-person clinical and lab course. Students may also complete all 100 hours entirely in person if they prefer an exclusively hands-on classroom environment.
About Our CNA Training Program
Certified Nurse Aides play a vital frontline role in healthcare, delivering compassionate, day-to-day care that keeps patients comfortable, safe, and supported. At Mamboridge Academy, our Nurse Aide program combines rigorous state-aligned coursework with practical clinical experience. Students complete the foundational 60-hour online training at their own pace through Texas Health and Human Services (TXHHS), earning their official certificate of completion. From there, students transition into 40 hours of intensive in-person clinical and lab training conducted over two weeks, mastering vital signs, personal patient care, infection control, and safe mobility. Together, both parts satisfy the 100-hour requirement to sit for the Texas CNA Certification Exam.
