This episode is about “AANPCB vs ANCC for FNP certification: Which certification body is the best for you?”

Two organizations provide family nurse practitioner (FNP) certifications in the U.S.: the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Body (AANPCB) and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).  

Deciding which organization you want to be certified as an FNP is a critical decision. In this episode, I will discuss the pros and cons of certifications from these two organizations and what to consider when making your decision.

Please make sure to check the most current requirements for initial certification and recertification by visiting both organizations’ websites:

* In the video, I said the ANCC stands for American Nurses Credential Center, but it actually stands for American Nurses Credentialing Center. I apologize for the mistake!

About ME:

Hi I’m Miki Miura, DNP, APRN, FNP-C👋

I’m a family nurse practitioner (FNP) in Hawaii, USA.

I was born and raised in Japan🇯🇵. I moved to the U.S. to become an NP when I was 25 years old after working as a registered nurse in Japan✈️

English is my second language, and becoming an NP in the U.S. as a foreign-born international student wasn’t easy. But, I was able to achieve my dream as well as many dreams that I couldn’t even imagine before, which include being awarded the State Award for Excellence for the State of Hawaii by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners in 2024🏆

My mission is to empower nurses from all over the world to achieve their dreams of building successful and fulfilling nurse practitioner careers✨

One of my mottoes is “WORK HARD, PLAY HARD” (which, by the way, is my favorite phrase I learned from American culture😄). While I see patients at two clinical practices, run an online coaching business, and do many other things, I surf three to four times a week🏄‍♀️ and go on a vacation every three to four months🏝️

This ideal work-life balance is possible for you….if you learn how to study/work smart!!!💪
