## CNA to Respiratory Therapist Program
### Achieve's Test-Out Program can help you become a Respiratory Therapist FASTER than Traditional Colleges
Respiratory care is a professionally and personally rewarding career with a balanced blend of technology and patient interaction. As an important member of the health care team, Respiratory Therapists work under the medical direction of doctors to treat all types of patients with heart and lung disorders.
We can help Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) earn their Respiratory Therapy degree the Achieve way.
Combining our credit-by-examination test-prep program with an online or campus-based respiratory therapy program allows you to complete the program faster and easier.

## How It Works
[##](##)
### 01 Evaluate
We’ll help you get maximum credit for your past courses or work experience and create a custom plan to finish your degree.
### 02 Test Prep
Our short and easy ***live, teacher-led*** online classes will prepare you to test-out of your selected classes.
### 03 Take Exam - Earn Credits
Take the exam at one of 1,900 testing centers. Arrive with confidence knowing Achieve students have a 93%\* pass rate.
## Great Pay and Job Outlook
According to the *Bureau of Labor Statistics*, the mean salary for Respiratory Therapists was $62,500 in 2018.
In addition, the job outlook is projected to grow 19% through 2022, faster than the average for all occupations. Some RT’s earn in excess of $78,000. A career as an RT can also lead to other opportunities.
The demand has never been higher, so job stability is excellent. As a Respiratory Therapist, you can help people and make a lasting and meaningful difference in the lives of others.
## Respiratory Therapy Program
This Respiratory Therapy Program can be completed in as little as 20 months, quicker than most occupations in the medical field. With CNA to Respiratory Therapist and Medical Assistant to Respiratory Therapy programs we can help almost anyone earn their degree faster using Credit-by-Exam.

## Credit-by-Examination Fast-Track Program
With our program, you’ll be able to test-out of many of the required college classes instead of taking them. This means you can get the same credit for full semester-long courses in as little as 4 weekly test prep sessions and taking one exam.
You even get to skip all that college homework, quizzes, and group projects. You know where you want to go, we can get you there faster!
## Local and Virtual Classes
You can attend our test-prep classes at one of our 69 local campuses or take the same classes virtually, online with live teachers.
You get the convenience of learning from home but, still, get the same interaction with live teachers and other students that you would in a local class.

"I worked 30+ hours a week and have two small children so I’ve found that this program and the way it’s set up, was a blessing for me. The staff and teachers were so supportive. With Achieve, I passed every exam the first time-usually with an A or B grade."

\* Only the latest pass/fail result per course per customer is used. We use approximately the last 24 months of results in our calculation. Customer failed results are only counted as part of this calculation if the customer completed the course, which is defined as at least 85% attendance and 85% completion of assignments for that specific course. Results do not include college entrance or state license exams.
\*\* Achieve Test Prep is a college education consultant and test preparation center that helps you earn your degree faster. Achieve Test Prep is not a college and does not issue degrees or give college credit. The programs listed above and elsewhere on this website are test preparation programs offered by Achieve Test Prep to prepare you to take exams from an independent accredited college or an independent testing center. Achieve purposefully remains independent and does not align itself with any college nor do we commit to any agreements with any college. By being truly independent, we offer a non-biased approach to recommending the best possible college route to our customers. While Achieve Test Prep is very knowledgeable on the policies and procedures of many colleges, the final decisions about credits and degrees rest with the colleges. You must independently apply for and be accepted into a college.
