Becoming a CNA in Massachusetts
Becoming a CNA in Massachusetts is one of the most procedurally distinctive pathways in the country — and the difference is the background check. Most states require a fingerprint-based state and federal background check before the state will issue your CNA certification. Massachusetts handles this differently: there is no pre-certification background check from the state, but your employer is required to complete a Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) check before you can begin work in any licensed facility. This means you can become certified before you have an employer lined up, but every employer you work for will run a CORI check on you separately.
