Country-specific programs In 2008, CGFNS announced two new programs that are country specific. CGFNS ISPN The International Standards for Professional Nurses (ISPN) program is an initiative between individual countries and CGFNS International through which the CGFNS Qualifying Exam® is unbundled from the Certification Program and given to qualifying first-level, general nurses residing in the those countries. Currently, CGFNS ISPN is administered in the People᾿s Republic of China through the HHRDC and in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia through IIG Vietnam. AGNK The CGFNS AGNK (Assessment of General Nursing Knowledge) is being rolled out as a pilot project in India in partnership with AHEd Global Healthcare (AGH),a subsidiary of American Higher Education, and will be used by schools of nursing and health care systems in India as a screening mechanism for measuring fundamental nursing knowledge and predicting work success for pre- or post-licensed nurses. |
