Week 12 Assignment 2: Certification<\/p>\n
Which Board certification will you be taking?<\/p>\n
Upon graduation, I will be taking AANP Board Certification, which is the board for Family NP and Adult-Gerontology Primary Care NP. AANP certification board offers a competence-based and entry-level examination for family nurse practitioners, adult nurse practitioners, emergency nurse practitioners, and Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse practitioners (AANPCB, 2022).\u00a0<\/p>\n
What are the eligibility requirements for your certification exam, and what documents do you need to register for the exam?<\/p>\n
Both A-GNP and FNP certification exams require one to have graduated from accredited graduate, post-graduate, and doctoral levels programs. This includes being fully accredited \u201cby the Council for Higher Education Accreditation\u201d and \u201cthe U.S. Department of Education\u201d to have completed the programs successfully (AANPCB, 2022).\u00a0I must have cleared my graduate program and acquired nationally recognized competencies that are compulsory for the nurse practitioner role in Family and Adult-Gerontology Primary Care. Also, I must have successfully completed APRN core, which includes advanced pathophysiology, advanced pharmacology, and advanced physical assessment (AANPCB, 2022).\u00a0 Finally, Eligibility is also dependent on the successful completion of the required direct patient care clinical hours an NP should complete under the faculty supervision. The documents I require to register for this exam are the unofficial or official transcript providing full details on my academic coursework completion date. This may be replaced with the final official transcript which includes the degree awarded and date of graduation.<\/p>\n
What are the testing parameters\u2014location, paper or computer testing, number of questions, test blueprint?<\/p>\n
Each exam carries 150 questions, with 15 of them being pretest questions useful in vetting their application in future examinations. This means 135 questions are the ones scored on each examination (AANPCB, 2022).\u00a0This examination is administered using computer-based testing through multiple the United States and Canada\u2019s PSI testing centers. The examination blueprint is based on Domain I practice (Assess, Diagnose, Plan, Evaluate) and Domain II patient age (Developmental Parameters), each domain having 135 scored items. For domain one, testing parameters include assessment, diagnosis, plan, and evaluation (AANPCB, 2022). The second domain testing parameter includes all different stages of patient age such as infant, adolescent, and elder adult. <\/p>\n
