Certification
Measurement Services' Content Expert Panels
Volunteer your time and experience and have an impact
Would you like to play a leadership
role in the
largest and most prestigious national certification body for nurses?
Are you interested in having the opportunity to make a difference? ANCC
is now recruiting for Content Expert Panel volunteers.
Each specialty Content Expert Panel
(CEP) provides
ongoing review and development of the test content outline (TCO) for
examinations in their respective specialty areas. The CEP constructs
the exam in accordance with the TCO and participates in role
delineation studies (practice analysis) once every five years.
We are currently seeking volunteers for
the following specialties:
- Acute Care Nurse Practitioner
- Adult Nurse Practitioner
- Clinical Nurse Specialist in Adult Health (formerly
known as Medical-Surgical) Nursing
- Clinical Nurse Specialist in Adult Psychiatric &
Mental Health Nursing
- Clinical Nurse Specialist in Gerontological Nursing
- Family Nurse Practitioner
- Gerontological Nurse
- Gerontological Nurse Practitioner
- Informatics Nurse
- Medical-Surgical Nurse
- Nursing Administration
- Nursing Administration, Advanced
- Nursing Case Management
- Nursing Professional Development
- Pediatric Nurse
- Pediatric Nurse Practitioner
How much time is involved?
Serving as a Content Expert Panel
member generally
requires participation in two expense-paid meetings per year, each
lasting three days, in Silver Spring, MD (Washington, D.C. metro area).
Participation in three (sometimes more) conference calls per year is
also required. Some at-home review work may be necessary.
One of the many benefits to you
Each year of service on the panel
confers a 12.5%
reduction in the total number of contact hours of continuing education,
up to a maximum of 50%, required for your next certification renewal!
One of the most important benefits to many CEP members is the
opportunity to play a dynamic role in the ongoing development of
professional nursing and your own particular specialty area.
