A nursing instructor at North Central Missouri College in Trenton is on the board that helps write the exam for new nurses. NCMC Nursing Instructor, Lisa Kauten, was recently selected to participate on the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) NCLEX NGN-PN Item Writing Panel. Kauten recently participated on a panel with other qualified nursing professionals to help develop the exam.
The NCLEX exam is to test the competency of nursing school graduates and determines if it is safe for an individual to begin practice as a nurse. The organization recruits qualified nurses to serve on the NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN examination development panels, including item writing and item review panels.
