AANP Certification Program becomes the AANP Certification Board

Effective January 2017, the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners National Certification Board, Inc. will change its business name and acronym from the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Program (AANPCP) to the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Board (AANPCB). Certification Board more accurately represents the entity's official incorporated name and reflects the full scope of the organization since multiple certification programs are offered. While the name and logo will change, the website domain www.aanpcert.org and contact information will remain the same Certification@aanpcert.org. The updated logo and name will appear on all official AANPCB documents and materials.
