Topic: NGN Test Validity

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. On Jan. 5, 2015, the first candidates were able to take the NCLEX-RN for purposes of licensure/registration in Canada. This publication provides a detailed breakdown of candidate performance for 2017, as well as historical data.

Topic: NGN Item Development

Overview of the accommodations process which will detail the online process, provide insight into NCSBN’s review, and highlight frequently asked questions.

Summary data for multiple categories of candidates, U.S. and international, is provided for performance on NCSBN's two nurse licensure examinations, the NCLEX-PN and NCLEX-RN. 

This periodic performance of practice analyses (i.e., job analysis) studies assists NCSBN in evaluating the validity of the NCLEX-RN test plan that guides content distribution of the licensure examination. Because changes can occur in registered nurse (RN) practice, practice analyses are conducted on a three-year cycle. This publication analyzes the U.S. & Canadian nurse testing populations.

Topic: NGN Usability Studies

Learn about the logistics of item writing and review panels including various volunteer opportunities that you can pass along to potential volunteers. Topics include the application process, selection criteria, and an overview of what it is like to be a participant on a panel.
