![]() ![]() The MSNCB Board of Directors approves all changes to the recertification process. What’s the rationale for the recertification requirements? Recertification by examination will no longer be an available option. The remaining twenty (20) hours are self-selected by the certificants and can be obtained through activities such as volunteering, writing a publication, preceptoring, and more. At least one (1) NCPD will be about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Professional development continuing education hours will consist of thirty (30) assigned NCPD hours from an accredited organization. Fifty (50) professional development continuing education hours will be required for recertification. The self-assessment will guide the assignment of targeted nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) hours which ensures the certificant is competent in all domain areas of the CMSRN.Ĭertification will be valid for a 3-year period. What will the new recertification process look like?ĬMSRN certificants will use a self-assessment tool provide by MSNCB that will indicate one’s competency level in each domain area of the CMSRN certification. The results of the pilot study were evaluated, and the selected model provides evidence that a nurse who uses the new recertification process demonstrates lifelong learning and remains competent in all domain areas of the CMSRN certification. The competency models were then tested by a large group of CMSRN certified nurses. In 2022, MSNCB put together a task force to explore different models that incorporate continuing competence into the recertification process. ![]() Continuing competence is demonstrating proficiency and professional development in medical – surgical nursing practice and the advancement of the nurse from novice to expert level clinician.
