NCSBN is a nonprofit organization that brings together state boards of nursing to address issues affecting public health, safety, and welfare, including licensing examinations. It oversees the development of the NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN exams and conducts policy analysis to promote uniform nursing regulation. The organization is based in Chicago, Illinois. Its work supports regulators by disseminating licensure data, conducting relevant research, and providing a forum for information exchange among members. The audience includes nursing regulatory boards and related stakeholders who rely on standardized processes to ensure safe nursing practice. In 2026, NCSBN announced a partnership to form the Tri-Council for Nursing, a broader alliance with other major nursing organizations.
