Evening CNA Classes — Frequently Asked Questions

What time do evening CNA classes meet?

Monday through Friday, 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM. No weekend classes. The program runs 6 weeks total.

Can I work a day job while taking evening CNA classes?

Yes — that’s exactly what the evening program is designed for. Most evening students work during the day and attend class after work. The 5–9 PM schedule leaves time for family responsibilities too.

Are there night CNA classes in Memphis?

Career Academy’s evening program runs 5–9 PM, which is the latest CNA class schedule available in the Memphis area. There are no overnight or weekend-only CNA programs in Memphis at this time.

How long is the evening CNA program?

6 weeks (compared to 4 weeks for the day program). Both programs cover the same 120 hours of instruction and clinical skills training. The evening program just spreads it over more weeks with shorter daily sessions.

Is the evening program the same certification as the day program?

Yes. Both programs lead to the same Tennessee CNA state certification. The curriculum, clinical skills, and state exam are identical. The only difference is the schedule.
