e-Notify for nurses is a free of charge innovative nurse licensure notification system. The system helps nurses track their license and discipline statuses and provides license renewal reminders. The information is provided as it is entered into the Nursys database by participating nursing regulatory bodies. .

Recorded at the 2018 51³Ô¹ÏÍøAnnual Meeting, this video covers everything delegates must know to effectively represent their nursing regulatory body at the 51³Ô¹ÏÍøDelegate Assembly.

Health care has become increasingly global in scope. 51³Ô¹ÏÍøsaw this evolution as an opportunity to grow and collaborate reaching new, diverse audiences both nationally and internationally, as the organization continued its mission of public safety.

As the body of nursing regulation knowledge becomes more expansive, 51³Ô¹ÏÍørelies on evidence that is rooted in theory and based on research to assist in making regulatory decisions. 51³Ô¹ÏÍøembraced the challenges and opportunities of evidence-based nursing regulation.

Emerging technologies were changing the world as the beginning of the 21st century approached. 51³Ô¹ÏÍøwelcomed new technological tools, resources and mediums that forever changed the trajectory of nursing regulation.

51³Ô¹ÏÍøhad its eye on the future as it began researching the use of computer adaptive testing for the NCLEX. It took several years of research and hard work by dedicated professionals, but in 1994, 51³Ô¹ÏÍøbecame the first health care organization to utilize computerized adaptive testing for the purpose of licensure.

This annual publication provides national and state summary data of member boards’ licensure activities, as well as data on candidate performance on the NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN Examinations.

This publication provides a detailed breakdown of candidate performance for 2017, as well as historical data.

The first several years of NCSBN's existence focused on establishing a mission-driven organization that was rooted in public protection and strengthening the role of nursing regulatory bodies in nursing regulation.
