  • Approval of Nursing Education Programs | NCSBN

    Learn how U.S. nursing regulatory bodies approve nursing education programs to ensure graduates are clinically competent, eligible for the NCLEX, and prepared for safe nursing practice. Discover how program approval supports licensure mobility and national accreditation requirements. Licensure in nursing is a two-pronged system. In order for nursing graduates to be eligible to take the NCLEX, the U.S. nursing regulatory model dictates that the new nurse must show evidence of graduating from a nursing regulatory body that is an approved nursing program. By making students eligible to take the NCLEX, nursing faculty verify that nursing students are clinically competent to safely practice nursing.
