Program directors are encouraged to review the latest edition of “Next Generation NCLEX News”. This edition contains an example case study and six innovative items associated with the case.

The key features of this sample include:

 • A sample scenario that provides the background information necessary for the NCLEX candidate to begin.
 • Six example items, each associated with one of the six “layer three” elements of the Nursing Clinical Judgment Measurement Model:
    ○ Recognize Cues
    ○ Analyze Cues
    ○ Prioritize Hypotheses
    ○ Generate Solutions
    ○ Take Action
    ○ Evaluate Outcomes
 • The use of three different innovative item types:
    ○ Extended Multiple Response
    ○ Matrix/Grid
    ○ Cloze/Drop Down
 • One item providing insight into the Computer-Based Testing User interface which will allow candidates to review the Nurses’ Notes or the Orders by clicking on the relevant tab

Mountain Measurement has been closely following NCSBN’s development of Next Generation NCLEX and looks forward to including the information gathered through these innovations in the NCLEX Program Reports. Educators who are interested in learning more about Next Generation NCLEX can visit the FAQ page of the NCSBN website.

Mountain Measurement, Inc. has published the second article in the series on nursing accreditation on the NCLEX Program Reports Professional Development Seminars website. This article, titled “The Impact of the 2018 CCNE Standards Changes on You and Your Students”, was written by Catherine Dearman, Ph.D., RN, an experienced CCNE and Southern Regional Education Board evaluator. The article is available here.

Cathy’s article focuses on the impact that the 2018 revisions to the key elements of Standards III and IV have on programs. Like prior editions of the Standards, the 2018 revisions provide a “framework, not a set of directions” allowing educators to evaluate their program and document program effectiveness in a manner that works best for them; the 2018 revisions have enhanced this idea and are discussed along with the key elements examined in the article.

The next NCLEX Program Reports article will address the basics of education program codes and provides tips for programs to avoid program code-related data anomalies in their NCLEX Program Reports. This article is scheduled for release in early April. #accreditation #nursingaccreditation #CCNE #acen #programevaluation

Mountain Measurement, Inc. has published an article titled "What is Accreditation and Why It is Important to you?" on the NCLEX Program Reports Professional Development Seminars website. The article was written by Cathy Dearman, whose experience with nursing accreditation includes serving as a CCNE and Southern Regional Education Board evaluator. This is the first article in a series about nursing accreditation. Cathy’s article defines accreditation, delineates the difference between institutional and professional accreditation, explains the importance of accreditation, provides a description of higher education accreditation in the US, and introduces the accreditation programs in nursing. Although the article is targeted to faculty members who are new to accreditation, experienced educators will likely gain new insights from the article. The next article in the series on nursing accreditation will pertain to CCNE accreditation and is scheduled for publication in early March.

Are you passionate about program evaluation?

Do you find nursing frameworks to be interesting?

Have you written or reviewed
program accreditation applications?

Have you ever wanted to make changes to the
NCLEX^® Program Reports?

If you answered "Yes!" to any of these questions, then you should consider joining the NCLEX^® Program Reports Panel of Experts.

The NCLEX^® Program Reports Panel of Experts provides vision, leadership, and insight to the creators and producers of the NCLEX^® Program Reports. The Panel is comprised of experienced nursing educators with a passion for continuous program improvement.

Mountain Measurement plans to add 3 new panelists for 2020. Individuals with expertise in program evaluation, assessment or accreditation are invited to apply. Canadian input is greatly needed, so Canadian educators are encouraged to apply.

This is an excellent opportunity to shape nursing education on a national and international level. The obligations are minimal and the potential is remarkable. Current panelist Judith Pelletier indicated "Unlike attending a conference, participation in the Panel provides the opportunity to work with colleagues and accomplish something that we can share with the nursing education community."

For more information check out the NCLEX Program Reports Panel of Experts: Panelist Description. Interested parties should inquire with brian@mountainmeasurement.com by December 16.

Although this opportunity may not be right for you, I'm confident that you know someone that should be sharing their knowledge and experience with other nursing educators. We'd appreciate it if you could forward this email to them and suggest that they apply.

For instance, programs are discouraged from analyzing performance across the quarters within a single year since there is variation in the performance of the comparison groups by quarter. For example, 2017 Q1 performance should not be compared to 2017 Q2 performance. Rather, longitudinal performance can be evaluated within the same quarter across years. For example, 2017 Q1 performance can be compared to 2018 Q1 performance.

If you have any questions about these changes, we encourage you to contact the NCLEX^® Program Reports Support Center.

Mountain Measurement, Inc., Pearson VUE, and The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) are pleased to announce the availability of Quarterly Editions of the NCLEX^® Program Reports. Quarterly Editions of the Reports will contain the same information that is provided in both the Annual and Semi-Annual Editions. However, as the name implies, the reporting period for each Quarterly Report will be only three (3) months. Quarterly Supplemental CSV files will also be available. Programs that graduate at least 10 students in any quarter will find the applicable Quarterly Editions useful while those programs that graduate at least 10 students in all four quarters of the year will find the suite of four Quarterly Editions most helpful.

We are also excited to inform you of a change in the way in which the Program Reports are packaged. Programs will now have the opportunity to purchase individual editions of the NCLEX^® Program Reports rather than subscriptions to the NCLEX^® Program Reports as they have done in the past. Despite this added flexibility, participating programs will be required to purchase at least two editions during the Reporting Year (April 1 - March 31). For example, programs can now purchase a Fall and an Annual Edition of the NCLEX^® Program Reports, rather than having to choose between a Semi-Annual or an Annual subscription to the NCLEX^® Program Reports. The cost per Report and per set of Supplemental CSV files has not changed ($175.00 RN/$112.50 PN per Report and $37.50 RN/$25.00 PN per set of Supplemental CSV files).

In order to accommodate the changes mentioned above, Mountain Measurement, Inc. has been busy making modifications to the NCLEX^® Program Reports website. You will be notified via email when these changes have been completed. Until that time, you will still be able to access, order, pay for, and download the NCLEX^® Program Reports. However, you will not be able to order Quarterly Editions of the NCLEX^® Program Reports until the website modifications have been made. We anticipate that the website will be ready March 15, 2017.

On March 15, 2017, programs will be able to begin ordering the first Quarterly Edition of the NCLEX^® Program Reports. This edition, the 2017 Q1 Edition of the NCLEX^® Program Reports, covering candidates testing between January 1 and March 31, 2017, will be a special promotional edition and may be purchased without any other Program Reports pertaining to the 2016-2017 reporting year. This special edition will allow programs wishing to track their students on a calendar year basis to begin with 2017. The 2017 Q1 Edition of the NCLEX^® Program Reports is scheduled to be published on May 15, 2017 for US programs and May 19, 2017 for Canadian programs. Subsequent Quarterly Editions of the NCLEX^® Program Reports will be available for purchase in May, 2017 when all of the editions of the 2017-2018 NCLEX^® Program Reports become available for purchase.

If you have any questions about these changes, we encourage you to contact the NCLEX® Program Reports Support Center.

These events will help nurse educators analyze and interpret the information contained in their program’s NCLEX^® Program Reports. Nursing education program administrators and educators from both the US and Canada are invited to attend these events.

The NCLEX® Program Reports are a valuable part of any program evaluation. These seminars will give faculty and administrators the tools and knowledge necessary to make the most of the information contained within the reports. Program evaluation is most effective when all stakeholders are involved. Therefore, programs are encouraged to participate as a group.

“We are excited to collaborate with some of the finest leaders in nursing program evaluation.” - Brian Bontempo, PhD, Principal Consultant, Mountain Measurement. “We anticipate that this collaboration will improve the quality of training provided to NCLEX^® Program Reports subscribers, which will help nursing program administrators and faculty across the US and Canada to improve their program’s curriculum and instruction.”

The short-term goals of the NCLEX^® Program Reports Panel of Experts include developing new NCLEX^® Program Reports Professional Development Seminars and publishing journal articles about how to use the NCLEX^® Program Reports. Long-term goals include modifying the content, format and style of the information provided in the NCLEX^® Program Reports. “These goals speak to the heart of program evaluation standards, fundamental concepts of evaluation quality, and the critical importance and meaningful use of what is learned from program evaluation.” - Karen J. Saewert, PhD, RN, CPHQ, CNE, ANEF, Member, Panel of Experts.

Panel members include:

Roseann Colosimo, PhD, MSN, RN from the University of Nevada Las Vegas. Education: Saint John’s College (BS), Catholic University of America (MS), and The Ohio State University (PhD)

Dear Customer,

Mountain Measurement, Inc., Pearson VUE and The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) are committed to making the NCLEX^® Program Reports affordable to nursing programs. We are proud of the fact that the price of subscriptions has not increased in over 15 years. During this time, Mountain Measurement has increased efficiencies and instituted cost saving measures which have allowed us to keep the price constant despite inflation.

However, due to the rising costs of producing and servicing the NCLEX Program Reports, subscription fees have changed. We are pleased to report that the cost of Supplemental CSV file subscriptions has not changed.

We thank you for your business and hope that you will understand the need for these changes.

Sincerely,

The NCLEX® Program Reports Team
