NNCC testing partner, the Center for Nursing Education and Testing (C-NET), is distributing a national job analysis survey. New and experienced technicians, LPNs/LVNs, and registered nurses who are involved in their education and training are needed to complete the survey. The more who help with this process, the better the results. This survey will be very important in determining scope of practice and differentiating roles.

Highlights from the July 2010 Commissioners' meeting in Marquette, Michigan are now available online.
