Certification Exam Eligibility

 

  • Have you delayed taking your Acute Care or Primary Care Certified
  • Pediatric Nurse Practitioner exam?
  • Know a PNP colleague or student from the past who hasn’t gotten certified yet?
  • Are you PNP faculty?

 

We need your help informing others about a Pediatric Nursing Certification
Board exam eligibility change that could impact them.

As a result of PNCB’s recent Continuing Competence and Strategic Plan initiatives related to advancing the competence of nursing professionals who care for children, a change is being made to the Acute Care and Primary Care Certifi ed Pediatric Nurse Practitioner certifi cation exams’ eligibility requirements.

Effective January 1, 2024, Pediatric Nurse Practitioners (PNPs) must successfully pass the certifi cation exam within fi ve years of graduation. All PNPs who graduated in 2019 or after will be required to meet this exam
eligibility criteria.

Visit www.pncb.org/pnp-exam-eligibility-change to learn more about this policy. If you know a PNP not currently certifi ed by PNCB, please share this important information and ask them to contact exam@pncb.org.
