CNA License Reciprocity in Indiana

Fill in the form:

Note: You will need to take the written portion of the Nurse Aide Training Competency Evaluation as part of the reciprocity.

1. Complete sections I and IV, sign and date the bottom of side one.
2. Include proof of Certification (copy of current out-of-state CNA certification which shows the registry number and expiration date). Certain states, as listed below, do not provide registry numbers or expiration dates: For example, CNAs from Illinois or Alabama are also required to submit a letter from their employer in that state that indicates they have worked at least one eight-hour shift in the past 24 months if the registry was certified more than two years prior. The letter must be on letterhead and include the candidate’s name, work title, and dates of employment. Employers who apply for out-of-state candidates must include a completed Out-of-State Validation Statement on facility letterhead, signed by the facility representative who contacted the appropriate out-of-state registry.
3. Include a money order or facility check, made out to Ivy Tech Community College, or Visa* or MasterCard* for payment of the $65 testing fee. Personal checks are not accepted. *If you are paying by credit card, include a note with the completed CNA application. Ivy Tech will email a link for the credit card payment after the application has been approved.
4. Send the form and payment.
5. Ivy Tech Community College will contact the candidate by email with instructions to schedule their exam at any Ivy Tech Campus Testing Center through an online scheduling system. Candidates will be able to select any Ivy Tech Campus Testing Center that works best for their location and date/time available.
