VA RN for over 4 years.
Recently completed my MBA, and am wondering about my next steps.
How does all this work now that we are using the ePerformance system? Who looks at our education and experience to decide our Nurse 1/2/3?
I cannot find any guidance on what the new process consists of or if there is a new process. Currently work in an area with limited supervision from other nurses, so knowing who to ask is another issue.
Any help is appreciated!

You didn't say what kevel RN you are currently so I will assume you are currently a nurse 2?? My answer relates strictly to going for a nurse 3:
So, first get your vetpro updated to reflect your new degree (congrats), they will probably need transcripts just talk to hr.
After vetpro is updated you can see about going for your promotion. (Unless yoir VA does degree waivers, most don't)don't.
Some VA will let you do an out of cycle promotion consideration (ask manager)
The holdup is checking that ons recognizes the MBA as a related degree. Not a masters degrees are accepted, again your manager might know (like strong maybe), if not your facility sme for the new board could provide the information or verify if your MBA is accepted
If all looks good you just need to wrote to the 5 rating criteria and meet all 5 for promotion to nurse 3.
Thanks, Arr-tistRN! I will look into that 🙂
