摘要：

Employers, state boards of nursing, certification organizations, and others face the challenge of developing valid ways to assess competency and to identify and address ongoing needs. To meet these challenges, the National Certification Corporation added a continuing competency component to its maintenance program for its certified nurse constituents in 2010. This article outlines the program and its impact on educational needs over time. The data demonstrate that giving certified nurses and nurse practitioners a third-party tool to assess their knowledge, along with targeted education based on knowledge gaps, can improve their overall knowledge in core areas of certification.
