Hi everyone
I know this may seem very dumb to some so forgive me - but I was really hoping to receive a CCRN certificate or something in the mail from aacn but I didn't get anything. like at all. Of course I did pass and received an email. BCEN sent me a certificate when I passed the CEN and a little patch with CEN on it so I was hoping to get the same so I could frame it.
I was wondering if this is the case now with aacn - maybe its a covid thing?
any info would be nice thanks!

AACN always sends out a certificate in the email with your initial certification and subsequent recertifications. I've recertified late last year (Nov-Dec 2020) for both CCRN and CSC and got my certificates in the mail. You don't get a patch or a pin (at least I don't remember getting one). They are available for purchase in the virtual AACN store.
thanks for your reply. I wonder if I should send them something

You can also access their online CCRN verification website and get a printer friendly version for verification purposes if you need it.

Yes they do but I think it took about a month or so for mine to arrive!
