The Certified Emergency Nurse (CEN) certification is specific to emergency nursing and measures
the attainment of a defined body of nursing knowledge pertinent to that specialty. Currently, more
than 30,000 nurses hold the http://msncb.org/ CEN certification. Although there are CENs
throughout the world, the CEN exam is based on emergency nursing practice in the United
States.You must pass the exam to attain initial CEN certification.
To qualify for the exam, you must hold a current unrestricted Registered Nurse license in the United
States or its Territories. A nursing certificate that is equivalent to a Registered Nurse in the United
States is also acceptable. BCEN® recommends 2 years' experience in the emergency department;
however, it is not required.
Throughout BCEN's website you will find resources to help you study and understand the exam
material. Upon successful completion of the certification exam, the CEN credential is valid for a
period of 4 years.
