CNC Offers Discount for the CNL Certification Exam
CNC continues to develop new items for the multiple-choice CNL Certification Exam. As such, the exam that has been administered since April 2012 will be updated beginning with the April 2013 testing period. However, CNC must beta test the items to determine the minimum passing score in compliance with national certification standards. The beta test will occur April 1-6, 2013. All participants who register for the beta test will receive a $50 discount off of the registration fee. To take advantage of this cost-savings opportunity, you must complete the hard copy of the application by March 1, 2013. Beta test participants will receive their exam results via email approximately four weeks after the testing period. For more information, click here.
