How does CCI verify that its certification program is fair, accurate and represents current standards of perioperative practice?
A. CCI builds in many checks and balances into the exam development process to ensure it is fair and both the questions and answers are accurate. CCI complies with the standards developed by the American Board of Nursing Specialties (ABNS) and the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA). Both the CNOR and the CRNFA exams have been accredited by these independent accrediting bodies. Accreditation requires that CCI update its job analysis study at least every five years. Additionally, every test question must have a valid published reference no older than five years.
