\nCCMA Study Guide<\/a>\n<\/div>\n
<\/span>Exam Eligibility<\/h2>\nTo sit for the CCMA exam, you must have a high school diploma, GED, or some other equivalent. NHA notes that you may qualify if you are scheduled to earn a high school diploma, GED, or equivalent within the next 12 months.<\/p>\n
You also need to meet one qualifying training or experience pathway:<\/p>\n
<\/span>Pathway 1: Medical Assistance Training<\/h3>\nThis pathway is for those who have completed a medical assistant training\/education program within the last five years. NHA allows several qualifying training routes, including military medical services training and certain employer-based training programs.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Pathway 2: Medical Assistance Work Experience<\/h3>\nThis pathway is for those who have supervised work experience in the medical assisting field. NHA specifies that you need to have one of the following:<\/p>\n
\n- At least one year of supervised medical assisting work experience within the last three years<\/li>\n
- At least two years of supervised medical assisting work experience within the last five years<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>California Applicants<\/h3>\nIf you are a California resident applying through the work-experience pathway, NHA requires at least two years of work experience as a medical assistant within the last five years immediately before your exam date.<\/p>\n
<\/span>CCMA Exam Outline<\/h2>\nThe CCMA exam contains 180 multiple-choice questions, 30 of which do not count toward your score, and you are given a time limit of 3 hours. The unscored questions are called “pretest” questions, and they are randomly distributed throughout the exam. These questions are used by the exam administrators to evaluate questions that will appear on future exams as scored questions.<\/p>\n
