About Maryland CNA

The Maryland CNA exam certifies nursing assistants as CNA-I (the title that replaced CNA/GNA on April 1, 2026). Training programs use Credentia (NNAAP: a 70-question written test with 60 scored + 10 pretest items in 2 hours, plus 5 skills in 30 minutes) or D&SDT-Headmaster (70 knowledge questions in 60 minutes with a 73% passing score, plus 3-4 skill tasks in 30 minutes). Testing costs $130 with either vendor. Regulated by the Maryland Board of Nursing (MBON).

Maryland CNA radio FAQ

Is Maryland CNA Radio free?

Yes. Maryland CNA Exam Prep Radio is free to listen to, with no sign-up. Press the power button and you join the broadcast straight away.

How does Maryland CNA Radio work?

It is a 58-minute recorded study show that broadcasts continuously. Everyone tuned in hears the same moment, like real radio. Turn it off whenever you like; turning it back on joins the current broadcast.

How is this different from a study podcast?

It works like a study podcast that is always on. Instead of choosing an episode, you join the show in progress, and everyone on a station hears the same moment. There is no seek bar, speed control or download.

Who are the hosts?

Maya & Ben are AI-generated hosts. The show is independent study material from OpenExamPrep; check exam rules with the official exam sponsor and practice with our free questions.

Can I keep listening while I practice?

Yes. Open practice questions, study guides or flashcards on any page. The radio keeps playing, and the header has a power button to turn it off or back on.

Who administers the Maryland CNA exam?

Maryland approves two testing vendors: Credentia (NNAAP format, at credentia.com/test-takers/maryland) and D&SDT-Headmaster, which the Board approved on October 23, 2024 and which is now fully operational for CNA-I candidates. Ask your training program which vendor it uses. The exam is overseen by the Maryland Board of Nursing (MBON).

What is the 120-day rule in Maryland?

It is a federal rule (42 CFR 483.35(d)): a nursing facility may not use anyone as a nurse aide for more than 4 months on a full-time basis unless that person has completed a State-approved training and competency evaluation program. The Maryland Board of Nursing asked CMS about a waiver, and CMS answered that no waiver exists that would let a nurse aide work beyond 4 months without taking the competency evaluation.
