AONE Nursing Administration
Certification Review Courses |
The American Organization of Nurse Executives’ Association has two nursing management certification review courses. Unlike the ANA Certification Exams, the registration process is easier and done completely online with instant approval. The Eligibility requirements are less for the AONE Exams.
The AONE exams cover different course contents. Even if you currently hold certification by ANA for Nursing Administration, you may want to consider AONE certification, especially if you work in or you are planning to work in a For-Profit Organization or a Corporate Position.
Petra Consultants, Inc. and one other company have designed review courses for these exams. These two companies are the only ones who worked on the joint task force with AACN and AONE regarding these certification programs and review classes.
Listed below are links to these exams, the Course Contents and Agendas. To determine whether you qualify to take these two exams click on this link and look at the two AONE Exams listed on this comparison chart: |
