Could anybidy explain me whats CPNE test means?

It is a three day clinical experience that is basically the capstone to Excelsior colleges associate degree of nursing program. It is a test of whether you can properly and safely perform the basic nursing functions required of an RN. There is a ton of information on this discussion board. Just do a search for CPNE and you can get detailed information about what the clinical experience entails!

It means so many different things to so many different people.

However the initials stand for:

Clinical Performance in Nursing Examination

Specializes in EMS, ED, Trauma, CEN, CPEN, TCRN.
