Exam Fees

The fees listed have been established for the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program in North Carolina.

You must pay for both the Skills Evaluation and the Written (or Oral) Examination the first time you test.

Under federal and North Carolina laws, nursing homes are required to pay the NNAAP® fees for their nurse aide employees, including individuals required to re-test.

Payment must be made in the form of a credit card, debit card, single-use card, or electronic voucher. Vouchers can be purchased by the training programs.

Once payment of exam fees is received, no refunds will be issued. Fees are not refundable or transferable.

Reimbursement for Training and Testing

Nursing Care Facilities (Medicare and Medicaid) are required to pay for your Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation Program (CEP) if you are employed or have been offered employment. 

If you are not employed by a nursing care facility when you start the NATCEP (Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation Program) or CEP (Competency Evaluation Program) but start or are offered a job within twelve (12) months of finishing the program, you will be reimbursed (paid back) for the costs of training and testing by the facility where you work. You should save all receipts to submit to the nursing care employer.
