The results are in – the 2023 VACC Year in Review is here.
Led by Joanne Dalusung, DNP, APRN, AGACNP-BC, CCRN-K, VA-BC™, as the 2023 President, we surpassed 5,000 VA-BCs! It is a major milestone for our organization, and we’re grateful for the certificants, organizations, and other stakeholders that value the VA-BC™.
Some highlights from the report:
- 52% of test takers in 2023 had their exam fees paid for or reimbursed by their employers after passing the exam – showing that employers value VA-BC™ certified, knowledgeable employees.
- Nearly a quarter of exam applicants heard about the exam because certification was a requirement for their job – a 5% jump from last year and an all-time high for the category.
- 43% of new applicants hear about the exam from colleagues.
