NBCRNA Media

The NBCRNA produces regular, timely communications to inform CRNAs, students, program administrators, CE vendors, other stakeholders, and the public about important developments and updates with regard to certification and recertification for nurse anesthetists.

The NBCRNA also periodically develops joint news releases with other organizations, such as the AANA, about collaborative developments. We provide support upon request to accredited providers to assist their efforts in communicating the value of certification. The NBCRNA also contributes to other publications that offer education and resources about Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs).

If you are a member of the media and would like to talk to a nurse anesthesia expert, please contact NBCRNA's Director, Communications & Engagement Donna Foersom dfoersom@nbcrna.com or 708-667-0118.

Pearson Professional Center Electronic Device Update

- Feb 16, 2023, 14:01 PM

Beginning February 20, 2023, the Pearson Professional Centers (PPCs) will require candidates to turn off all electronic device(s) and place them inside a Pearson provided plastic bag. All small electronic devices (smart watches, mobile phones, MP3 players, fitness trackers, iPods, eCigs, etc.) must be placed in the bag. This plastic bag will be stored in the exam candidate’s locker along with any other personal belongings. The plastic bag cannot be opened until after the exam is completed. This measure supports the NBCRNA testing policies which prohibit the use of electronic devices during any exam.
