Mississippi - National Nurse Aide Assessment Program (NNAAP)

You can take your Written/Oral exam from home or work through Credentia online proctoring. A live proctor (someone who supervises the test) will securely monitor you through the webcam on your workstation. Online exams also offer you more scheduling flexibility than test center exams to fit with your schedule.

Visit http://www.credentia.com/online-exams for information on what to expect and how to best prepare for your online exam. We also recommend that you click on the “Policies & Procedures” link on this webpage to review detailed exam rules and procedures.

What You'll Need

The right computer – a desktop, laptop or Chromebook with a single monitor (no smartphones or tablets). Visit http://www.credentia.com/online-exams to view or download system requirements.
A private room - if you don't have access to a private room, check with your training program or local library for availability.
A mobile device - to complete a 360-degree room scan, you'll need a smartphone or tablet (Apple or Android) that can download our free app.

What To Do in the Days Before Your Online Exam:

Run a system test – Perform the required system test and exam simulation before exam day. Visit www.credentia.com/online-exams and select the “Run System Test” button.
Find your testing space – you need a quiet area in your home or office to take your exam.
Get your ID ready – you are required to have two (2) forms of official ID with a signature (one must be a photo identification). Photocopies of identification will NOT be accepted. Examples of identification you can use include:
Driver’s license
Social Security card
Clinic card
Credit card
Library card
State-issued identification card
Passport
Alien registration card

The name on your identification must be the same as the name you used on the application to register for the examination.

If you do not have proper identification, you will not be allowed to take the test and your examination fee will not be refunded.

IMPORTANT: If you can’t take the test because of this, it still counts as one of your three (3) chances to take the exam = — please have the correct forms of identification.

What To Do on Your Online Exam Day

STEP 1: Prepare your testing space.

Quiet: no background noise and inform members of your household you are taking an exam.
Well Lit: proctors must be able to see you and your testing space well.
Privacy: no one else in the room.
Remove prohibited items: clear workstation area to expedite room scan.
Restroom/Beverages: use restroom and prepare beverages before exam.

STEP 2: Have your ID ready.

Have your government issued photo ID with you (see list or proper identification in section above).

STEP 3: Prepare your computer.

Disconnect any additional monitors and close all other open applications.
Have your chargers (laptop, smart phone or tablet) plugged in or nearby
Use a wired internet connection rather than WiFi, if possible.
If using WiFi, we recommend at least 3Mbps and ask that other household members do not use the internet during your exam.
Disconnect any VPNs or firewalls if you have them.
A wired headset is required for the Oral Exams.

STEP 4: Download the ExamRoom AI app.

Download the ExamRoom AI app to your smartphone or tablet and have your CNA365 login credentials available (the user name and password for your Credentia CNA365 account). This app is required to complete a 360-degree room scan.

You can begin to check in up to 30 minutes before your appointment. Your onboarding agent will make sure everything is ready for your exam before introducing your proctor (the test supervisor).
