This annual report functions as a formal summary of NCSBN’s performance and activities during fiscal year 2015. It also provides financial information, NCLEX pass rates, member achievements, a timeline of NCSBN activities and NCSBN facts. 

This webinar introduces a new, dynamic report (Education Program Pass Rate) that will be launched in January 2016 through Pearson VUE’S Business Intelligence platform. Here, our psychometric staff reviews existing reports and demonstrates how this new report will provide a better and easier way to get the information you need. After this webinar, you will be able to run the Education Program Pass Rate report for students who were educated in your jurisdiction and licensed in all jurisdictions—both first timers and repeaters. This report includes both an education program summary and individual student information.

To ensure public protection, each jurisdiction requires candidates for registered nurse licensure to meet set requirements that include passing an examination that measures the competencies needed to perform safely and effectively as a newly licensed, entry-level registered nurse. NCSBN develops a licensure examination, the NCLEX-RN, which is used by jurisdictions to assist in making licensure decisions. Triennially, NCSBN conducts the NCLEX-RN Practice Analysis to analyze entry-level RN practice. Using the data collected from the practice analysis, NCSBN develops the NCLEX Test Plan which guides the selection of content and behaviors to be tested during NCLEX administration. In April 2016, the new 2016 NCLEX-RN Test Plan will become effective. This webinar will provide an overview of the 2016 NCLEX-RN Test Plan, including new information effective with the test plan revision.
