National League for Nursing Examines Impact of Certified Nurse Educator (CNE) Exam in Study Published by Nursing Education Perspectives Press Release- Two years after it created the credential of Certified Nurse Educator (CNE) to recognize excellence in the advanced specialty role of the academic nurse educator, the National League for Nursing has conducted an analysis to determine its acceptance and value. The results, reported in the current issue of Nursing Education Perspectives, the NLN's respected peer-reviewed journal, reveal that nurse educators representing all 50 states and the District of Columbia, who teach in all types of nursing education programs, from diploma through doctoral, have taken the CNE examination. As of September 2007, 773 nurse educators nationwide have added CNE to their CVs, reflecting a diverse group of qualified, full-time academics across the spectrum of nursing programs, academic rank, educational preparation, and years of experience in the classroom. "We have learned that nurse educators at every stage of their careers express interest in becoming certified nurse educators," remarked Dr. Beverly Malone, CEO of the NLN. "It is important to note that in creating the CNE credential, the NLN has sent a critical message to our colleagues in higher education: nurse educators have a proven track record of excellence and must therefore be accorded the status and compensation that goes along with their accomplishments." Added NLN president Dr. Elaine Tagliareni, "The League has taken a giant step toward our goal of helping to recruit and retain nurse faculty to address the nursing shortage. The certification program makes it clear that the role of nurse educator is an advanced professional practice discipline with a defined practice setting and demonstrable standards of excellence. The first professional credential designed specifically for nurse faculty, the CNE is certain to have a substantive and lasting influence on nursing education, both locally and nationally. |
