Complete a nursing assistant course through a local community college. After graduation, contact the Oregon State Board of Nursing(OSBN) on how you can take the written and practical examination for licensure. The OSBN will send you a letter where and when to take the test. Test results are mailed ten days after along with your CNA license if you pass.
