CNA Classes in Texas: 254 State-Approved Programs

Texas approves 254 CNA training programs, listed below from the state's official approved-program list (Texas HHSC Long-Term Care Regulation (NATCEP)), current as of September 2026. The most are in Houston (33), Dallas (14), Big Spring (10). About 98 run at colleges, technical schools, and adult-education programs, and about 60 at nursing facilities and care centers, where training is often free for employees under federal rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many CNA classes are there in Texas?

Texas's official approved-program list names 254 state-approved CNA training programs, with the most in Houston, Dallas, Big Spring. The list is published by Texas HHSC Long-Term Care Regulation (NATCEP) and this page mirrors it as of September 2026.

How long is CNA training in Texas?

Texas requires 100 total training hours, including 40 clinical hours, against the federal minimum of 75. Full-time programs commonly finish in about 5 weeks; part-time tracks take longer.

Are there free CNA classes in Texas?

Under federal rule 42 CFR 483.152(c), a nursing facility cannot charge a nurse aide it employs for training and must reimburse a new hire's training cost within 12 months of certification. 60 of the 254 approved programs in Texas run at nursing facilities or care centers, which are the usual source of free or paid-while-training tracks. 42 CFR 483.152(c): nursing-facility trainees cannot be charged; HHSC also offers a free 60h computer-based classroom course pairing with 40 clinical hours.

How do I check that a CNA program in Texas is state-approved?

Every program on this page comes from Texas's official approved list (linked below). Before enrolling anywhere, confirm the program still appears on the current state list and ask the Texas Nurse Aide Registry if you are unsure.
