Due to criteria established by the Institute for Credentialing Excellence (ICE), the NTNCB maintains a completely separate leadership structure from NANT.  \nTesting Agency  \nThe NTNCB contracts with Pearson VUE testing centers. Pearson VUE is part of Pearson, the world's largest learning company with more than 35,000 employees working across the globe to reliably deliver the Neonatal Therapy Certification Exam.  \nPearson VUE is headquartered in suburban Minneapolis, Minnesota, with regional offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, Dubai, Australia, India, Japan and China. Pearson VUE administers the exam with testing centers in every major metropolitan area of the United States as well as many countries. Once you are eligible to take the exam, you can look for a testing center near you by accessing the NTNCB page using this link:  \n[https://home.pearsonvue.com/Test-takers.aspx](https://home.pearsonvue.com/Test-takers.aspx)  \nA list of testing centers is also maintained on the NTNCB website.  \nStatement of Nondiscrimination  \nNTNCB and Pearson VUE do not discriminate among candidates on the basis of age, gender, race, color, religion, national origin, disability, marital status or any other protected characteristic.  \nEligibility  \nThe first step toward taking the Neonatal Therapy National Certification Examination is to complete the application for neonatal therapy certification at [www.NTNCB.com](www.NTNCB.com). This documentation includes proof of professional credentialing, NICU clinical experience, professional education, and mentoring. Specific details about the application process and required documentation can be found [at ](at www.NTNCB.com. There)[www.NTNCB.com](at www.NTNCB.com. There)[. There](at www.NTNCB.com. There) are two deadlines each year. The first deadline is May 15th, and the second deadline is November 15th. The NTNCB will notify the applicant, after reviewing the contents of the application, regarding his/her eligibility for the Neonatal Therapy National Certification Examination within 90 days of each deadline. After being notified of eligibility to take the exam, the applicant has a six month-period to take the examination. The exam can be scheduled at the candidate’s convenience within that six-month period. A passing examination score is mandatory to satisfy the final requirement for neonatal therapy certification.  \nExam Registration  \nUpon notification of eligibility to take the exam, the candidate will receive a unique identification number, along with information on how to pay the examination fee. Within one week of paying the exam fee, the candidate will receive information directly from Pearson VUE indicating how to schedule the examination. Certification applicants have six months from the date of notification of eligibility to take the Neonatal Therapy National Certification Examination.  \nCandidates must complete the examination demographics in full, using their name exactly as it appears on their current government-issued photo ID (such as a driver’s license or passport) .  \nExamination Administration  \nThe Neonatal Therapy National Certification Examination is offered by computer at approximately 230 Pearson VUE network of test centers located throughout the United States and more than 20 countries. Candidates can schedule their exam in a location that is convenient to them, and in most cases, within a short distance from ","cbCaivKPZRlBQpCO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivKPZRlBQpCO","pdf",420524,12,"English","# NTNCB Mission Statement\n# Affiliation / Purpose / Objective\n# Testing Agency\n# Statement of Nondiscrimination\n# Eligibility\n# Exam Registration\n# Examination Administration\n# Fees\n# Special Arrangements for Candidates with Disabilities\n# Reschedule and Cancellation Policy\n# Missed Appointments/Forfeitures\n# Inclement Weather/Other Emergency","[{\"question\":\"What is the NTNCB’s mission and how is it organized?\",\"answer\":\"The NTNCB advances inter-professional neonatal therapy practice by developing evidence-based certification standards and validating essential clinical experience and knowledge.
