Investigate a professional nursing organization that offers certification in an area of clinical or nonclinical expertise
The purpose of this assignment is to investigate a professional
nursing organization that offers certification in an area of
clinical or nonclinical expertise. You are to select a professional
nursing organization and determine if it offers a certification
that will be of benefit to you in your current position or a future
position to which you aspire. The organization and certification
may be in either a clinical or nonclinical area; however,
leadership development opportunities are important.
For example, you may aspire to be a Certified Registered
Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). Or, you may be currently interested in
becoming a Certified Wound Care Specialist, Emergency Department
Nurse or Medical-Surgical Nurse. Other organizations may be
considered on a case-by-case basis AFTER approval from your
instructor. An example would be if you want to become a CDE
(Certified Diabetes Educator). This certification is sponsored by
the American Association of Diabetes Educators which is not
exclusively a nursing organization. Or, becoming certified as an
IBCLC may be of interest to RNs working in Mother-Baby Departments
and is sponsored by the International Lactation Consultant
Association.
The organization MUST offer certification for registered
nurses. If you have any questions about whether the organization is
a “fit” for this assignment, contact your instructor.
You will complete the form provided in Doc Sharing carefully
providing all the information requested.
