The table provides information to identify whether this program meets the specific state, province, or territory educational requirements for the states and provinces listed below. In the column titled “Does This Program Meet State Educational Requirements?” the disclosure for that state is provided as “Meets State Educational Requirements”, “Does Not Meet State Educational Requirements”, or “No Determination Has Been Made”. This disclosure is unique to the specific state for each row on the table.
It’s important to note that even if the program meets the educational requirements, licensure may also require acceptance to a registry, background checks, or meeting physical standard requirements. Students are advised to check with the agency to identify an exact set of requirements that extend above the educational requirements.
For all states indicated as Meets State Educational Requirements for reciprocity, Isothermal Community College meets or exceeds the state standard, but the candidate must complete an application, any required testing, and must be in good standing (as defined by the individual states). For all states marked as Does Not Meet State Educational Requirements, the states have practices that required the applicant to contact the regulatory agency to identify requirements and processes for CNA interstate transfers.
