    The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) is a not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to provide an organization through which boards of nursing act and counsel together on matters of common interest and concern affecting the public health, safety and welfare, including the development of licensing examinations in nursing. While English proficiency examinations were in use to assist boards of nursing in licensure decisions, none were designed to measure the English proficiency levels for safe nursing practice. Uniform Core Requirements Adopted the proposed uniform core licensure requirements for initial licensure of RNs and LPN/VNs, and recommended that states move toward incorporation of the uniform core licensure requirements at the state level. NCSBN Acts as Healthcare Integrity and Protection Data Bank (HIPDB) Reporting Agent NCSBN began serving as the reporting agent for member boards for HIPDB.
