The state board of nursing is responsible for monitoring nursing license for renewal, obtaining first time licenses, setting the regulations for educational needs to obtain a license, setting rules for scope of practice and determining discipline for infractions (“Boards & Regulation | NCSBN,” n.d.).  Professional nursing organizations are important for getting more focused information out to the members regarding the specific specialty of nursing the group serves  (“Role of Professional Organizations in Advocating for the Nursing Profession,” n.d.).  They also poll nurses regarding needs, trends and new educational opportunities (“Role of Professional Organizations in Advocating for the Nursing Profession,” n.d.).  These groups are also instrumental in organizing information and contacting politicians when it comes to initiating policy change within the nursing field  (“Role of Professional Organizations in Advocating for the Nursing Profession,” n.d.).  The American Nurses Credentialing Center is responsible for setting the regulations for what nursing programs need to have to qualify for the minimum needs to become a nurse and they also set the standards for continued educational requirements for license renewal  (“ANCC Accreditation,” n.d.). The methods for credentialing include the initial licensure into practice, issuing certification for specialties within the nursing field and setting scope of practice standards for advanced practicing nurses (Needlman, Dittus, Pittman, Spetz, & Newhouse, 2014). All of these groups work for the same purpose which is making the nursing profession safe for both nurses and patients.

The Minnesota Board of Nursing requires that APRNs are certified by a national nurse certification organization in order to become licensed through the state. All RN’s are required to take the NCLEX for licensure and are required to do 24 hours of continuing education every 2 years to maintain licensure (MN Board of Nursing). Licensure is granted through the state board of nursing, certification is obtained by taking the required courses, clinicals, and test to prove competence (Loversidge, 2016). Registration is completed to have recognition for your title and having the criteria necessary to gain entry into the profession (Loversidge, 2016). Professional organizations develop practice standards and exams which measure competence in the area of the APRN’s expertise (Loversidge, 2016). The main methods of credentialing include taking exams through accredited associations, such as the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (Loversidge, 2016). Both organizations want the public to be safe and have worked together throughout the years to establish nurses scope of practice and the nurses code of ethics (Mathews, 2012). They have also worked hard towards our profession being recognized in the health care arena and in society and making publicly known about our contributions to healthcare and patient outcomes (Mathews, 2012).
