To ensure public protection, boards of nursing/regulatory bodies (BONs/RBs) require a candidate for licensure/registration to pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) developed by the NCSBN that measures the competencies needed to perform safely and effectively as an entry-level nurse.  The eligibility to take the NCLEX-RN and to get a license/registration is determined by the board of nursing/regulatory body (BON/RB) where you wish to practice.  The test can be taken outside the US.  To check your eligibility, contact us for more information.
