Becoming a CNA in Utah
Utah is one of the most centrally administered CNA systems in the country - the Utah Nursing Assistant Registry (UNAR), operating from the UT Health Technology Certification Center in Kaysville, partners with D&SDT-Headmaster to deliver training program approval, testing, certificate issuance, registry maintenance, and renewal under a single TMU portal at ut.tmutest.com. This consolidation makes the process traceable and standardized but means every candidate, instructor, and employer must hold a TMU account.
