Labor Secretary Arturo Brion said today that his department is studying the recommendation of the American Nurses Association (ANA) for a full retake of compromised June 2006 Nurse Licensure Examination.
Brion added, “We might ask for a representation with them and seek the help of the CGFNS with whom we’ve already had long discussions.”
Meanwhile, President Arroyo has signed the Executive Order for the optional partial retake of the board exams.
A meeting between Brion and the deans of top nursing schools is scheduled on March 17 to discuss review classes for those who will opt to retake.
The application period for the review is from March 19 to April 4, while the review classes will be from April 16 to June 3. The retake is tentatively scheduled on June 11 and 12, 2007.
