The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) will launch the NGN no sooner than April 1, 2023. These exams for RN and PN candidates will measure clinical judgment cognitive skills outlined in the NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (NCJMM) to help students think more critically in their future careers as nurses.
To help faculty teach students how to use the six cognitive (thinking) skills outlined in the NCJMM, and to be fully prepared for the changes in the NGN, read the three-phase rollout plan developed by NGN experts Donna Ignatavicius and Linda Silvestri.
