Score Reporting

Exam Results

You will receive a notification email from Credentia Platform when a new exam score has been posted to your online account. To access your score report, login to your Credentia Platform account by clicking the “Login” button on the top of the South Carolina nurse aide website page at www.credentia.com/test-takers/sc. Score reports are generally available within a few hours after a testing event is completed for the day. If it has been more than twenty-four (24) hours and you are unable to view your score report in Credentia Platform.

How to Read a Failing Score Report

If you do not pass the Skills Evaluation, you will receive a Failing Score Report. The score report will list the five (5) skills that you performed and a score of Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory for each skill. Any skill with an Unsatisfactory result is considered a failed skill. You must receive a Satisfactory result on five (5) skills in order to pass the Skills Evaluation.

Use your failing Score Report as an aid in studying to re-take the Skills Evaluation. A failed skill will show the reason for the failure. You may not have performed the steps of a skill correctly, or you may have forgotten a step, especially a Critical Element Step.

The failing Score Report will list steps that were missed or incorrect—look for numbers printed directly under a skill marked Unsatisfactory. A list of all the skills and the steps needed for each skill can be found in this handbook. Find the skill you failed, and study the steps, especially steps listed as Unsatisfactory on the score report.

In the example on the following page, a candidate received a result of Unsatisfactory on the skill Hand Hygiene. The numbers 1, 5, and 10 printed below the skill refer to steps that were missed or performed incorrectly. To study for re-taking the Skills Evaluation, this candidate should turn to the Skills Listing in this handbook, look for the Hand Hygiene skill, and review all the steps, especially steps 1, 5, and 10.

Passing

Once you have passed both the Written (or English or Spanish Oral) Examination and the Skills Evaluation, your name will be placed on the South Carolina Nurse Aide Registry. Approximately ten (10) business days from the day on which you successfully complete both parts of the NNAAP Examination.

After you have passed both the Written (or Oral) Examination and the Skills Evaluation, you may view your name on the Registry by going to Credentia’s website at www.credentia.com/test-takers/sc. Select "Nurse Aide Registry" in the Resources section and then select "Search South Carolina Nurse Aide Registry.”
