While not required by federal or state regulations, certification has become an essential requirement in the contemporary job market. It provides potential employers and patients with confidence, as it signifies that you have demonstrated your expertise and abilities through thorough examination and evaluation.
We strongly emphasize the significance of education as the cornerstone for building a robust knowledge base and skill set. Our objective is to assess competency through written examinations and clinical evaluations, aiming to validate skills acquired at the academic level and honed through practical experience and real-world application of knowledge
In order to create the written exam, NCMA followed the psychometric development principles. The purpose of any examination is to test specific knowledge within the discipline. Each certification exam created by the National Certification Medical Association, has been developed through the collaboration of “Subject Matter Experts” or SME’s utilizing an “Outcome Based” curriculum. Each certification exam offered by our agency has an independent advisory board which includes subject matter experts from that particular field.
In order to determine what the structure and content of the exam should be, the National Certification Medical Association refers to a job-task analysis. This is the foundation upon which the content validity of any professional certification process begins. The study identifies the core knowledge areas and critical work functions that are common across all professionals. Basing the examination specifications on the aforementioned results ensures the assessment procedures will be a practical and realistic reflection of the skills, knowledge and abilities required for competence in this profession.
