Certification isn’t a test you cram for — it’s a portfolio you build.

In this episode, Janis breaks down the four domains the CNA foot care nursing certification is built on, why “I’ve done this for years” isn’t the same as proving it, and the simplest first step to becoming the gold standard.

You’ll learn how to think about ongoing learning, standards of practice, collaboration and leadership, and self-reflection as evidence you can start collecting now.
