Institutional Certification Program

The NCC Institutional Certification Program provide institutions an easy way to get their obstetric, gynecologic and neonatal nursing staff certified.  The program provides onsite testing.  Depending on volume of participants, testing dates can be individialized and if more than 100 participants, discounts on fees are available. 

Doesn't it make sense for the health professionals in your institution to be nationally certified?

As the first line in providing patient care, what health care professionas know and how they perfrom can really affect the liability risks your organiztion must face in its daily operation.  NCC can help you achieve this goal. Our Institutional Certification Program offers hospitals, clinics or any other employer a way to get any obstetric, neonatal or women's health professionals sponsored by your institution certified as quickly as possible based on your specific needs.

Sponsor 25 or more test candidates (any specialty mix including Pretest) to take the examination at your institution at any time. Sponsor 100 or more candidates and receive a negotiated fee discount.

Sponsoring institutions will be required to provide a testing room and proctors at no cost to NCC.

All details and terms are outlined in a contract.
