Elevate your career in pediatric primary care and make a lasting impact on children's lives by passing the CPNP-PC® exam.
The PNCB Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner-Primary Care (CPNP-PC®) exam is for nurses seeking certification in primary care pediatric nursing. Offered by the Pediatric Nursing Certification Board (PNCB), this certification validates your expertise in providing primary care to pediatric patients across various settings.

The exam is divided into four main content areas: Health Maintenance and Promotion (30%), Assessment and Diagnosis (35%), Management (30%), and Leadership, Ethics, and Practice Management (5%). Health Maintenance and Promotion focuses on anticipatory guidance, immunization counseling, injury prevention, illness prevention, and education on social, behavioral, and mental health. The Assessment and Diagnosis section evaluates the ability to perform physical exams, interpret diagnostic tests, and make clinical decisions based on patient history and exam findings. Management emphasizes counseling, therapeutic interventions, procedures, collaboration, and care coordination. Finally, the Leadership, Ethics, and Practice Management section covers topics like evidence-based practice, legal and ethical issues, and practice management, ensuring that practitioners can lead and manage their practice effectively.

Eligibility requires a current RN license, completion of an accredited graduate or doctoral program in pediatric primary care nursing, and relevant clinical practice hours. The exam includes 175 multiple-choice questions, 150 of which are scored and 25 unscored, with a time limit of 3 hours.
