The BCEN Certified Emergency Nurse (CEN®) exam is for nurses seeking certification in emergency nursing. Offered by the Board of Certification for Emergency Nursing (BCEN), this certification validates your ability to provide high-quality care in emergency settings, such as emergency departments and trauma centers.
Eligibility requires a current RN license, and while there are no specific experience requirements, it is recommended that candidates have at least two years of experience in emergency nursing.
The CEN® exam covers a comprehensive range of subjects critical to emergency nursing, ensuring candidates are well-prepared to handle the diverse challenges of the field. The exam is structured around key areas such as Cardiovascular, Respiratory, and Neurological Emergencies, reflecting the need for quick and accurate assessment in life-threatening situations. It also includes Gastrointestinal, Genitourinary, Gynecological, and Obstetrical Emergencies, along with Mental Health, Musculoskeletal, and Wound Emergencies, highlighting the need for a broad understanding of patient care. Additionally, the exam addresses Environmental and Toxicology Emergencies, Professional Issues, and Triage, ensuring that certified nurses are not only clinically competent but also equipped to handle ethical dilemmas, disaster management, and the complexities of patient care transitions. This extensive content ensures that those who pass the CEN® exam are thoroughly prepared to deliver high-quality emergency care in a fast-paced and demanding environment.
The CEN® exam consists of 175 questions, 150 of which are scored and 25 unscored, with a time limit of 3 hours. The certification is valid for four years, with renewal options through continuing education or re-examination.

I studied this app for 3 months before taking my CEN exam. I passed with ease. I felt prepared and ready when test day came. I would definitely invest in this app if I were you! It’s so convenient to open it up and practice instead of scrolling social media. Great app!!
