Please download this publication from the NCC website and review the exam administration options. It will answer any questions about the NCC examination process.  \nIf there are other questions, please feel free to contact NCC through the“Contact Us” page [at NCCwebsite.org](at NCCwebsite.org).  \nNCC’S PHILOSOPHY OF TESTING  \nCertification is an evaluative process that provides the opportunity for nurses in the obstetric, gynecologic and/or neonatal specialty to demonstrate publicly what they know and to be recognized for the special knowledge they possess. The NCC certification carries no licensing authority. The ability to practice as a nurse is regulated by the state boards of nursing, and while certification may be required in some states for advanced practice roles, NCC has no regulatory power to require states to recognize NCC certification for this purpose. Practice and educational standards are reflected in the certification process, but the responsibility for development of such standards rests with the professional nursing specialty organizations and the nursing educational community. NCC encourages individual nurses to seek out information about how certification relates to state licensure requirements, program accreditation of the educational institutions attended, the educational and practice standards of national nursing specialty organizations, and employment expectations.  \n© 2026 Corporation (NCC) All Rights | 676 N Michigan \\#3600 | Chicago, IL 60611 | 312 951 0207 | org  \nNCC core and subspecialty programs are accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies  \n2026 Candidate Guide: Maternal Newborn Nursing  \n1  \n.  \nNO REFUNDS WILL BE  \nCONSIDERED FOR ANY CANDIDATE  \n• who has taken an examination  \n• who is not successful in achieving certification  \n• who failed to take the exam at a Test Center or via Live Remote Proctoring (LRP) within the 90-day testing window and did not submit a change request within stated time frames  \n• who failed to schedule an appointment to test within the first 30 days of their 90-day eligibility window and is unable to schedule their exam within their eligibility window.  \n• who failed to have proper ID or meet any required rules  \n• who failed to login to the test portal or appear at the test center (no-show) or who signed in late to the test portal or arrived late ","cbCaikEeXP4b1ZjP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikEeXP4b1ZjP","pdf",573395,21,"English","# Fees & General Policies\n## About the Exam\n## Exam Content\n## Study Guides\n## Study Resources\n## Sample Questions\n## Scoring & Test Report\n## Terms of Certification and Certification Maintenance","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Maternal Newborn Nursing Core Certification exam (RNC-MNN®)?\",\"answer\":\"It is a competency-based exam that tests specialty knowledge and application for licensed registered nurses working with the childbearing family from birth to six weeks.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the cancellation window after submitting an exam application?\",\"answer\":\"Candidates have six hours from the time they submit an exam application to cancel, and cancellation is done through the account using the specified option under new certification.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the retest and resubmission requirements?\",\"answer\":\"Retest candidates must pay full application and examination fees, complete a 45-day wait period before resubmitting, and certification exams of the same specialty can be taken twice per calendar year.\"}]","2026 Candidate Guide - Maternal Newborn Nursing | PDF",1790416966,53]
