I am graduating soon with a bachelors degree in Community Health and will begin a master's entry Clinical Nurse Leader program in the Fall (I am not yet an RN). My question is should I take the CHES exam now while I am fresh out of my community health program and eligible for student pricing and if so, why? What makes CHES certification worth the exam cost for nurses? More specifically, is the CHES exam worth it for a new nursing student who is currently unsure if public health/health education nursing is the direction she wants to go in after becoming an RN? Are there other certifications that are better? Thanks in advanced for your help!
