Licensure Disclosure

Stanly Community College academic programs (credit and non-credit) that are designed to lead to state educational requirements for professional licenses are either tied to the State of North Carolina or national certification.  Upon satisfactory completion of Nurse Aide Level I, students will be eligible to register for the NNAAP State Exam through NACES.

If you intend to pursue professional licenses outside the State of North Carolina once you have completed your academic program at Stanly Community College, please refer to the Professional Licensure Section on the college's state authorization page for additional information: State Authorization
