Why Code to NCLEX-RN
• Map content in each course• Map content across the program• Identify gaps related to NCLEX-RN content• Identify redundancies • Prevent content “drift”• Compare to student outcomes
– Standardized exams

Let’s Get Ready to Map
• Faculty’s best friend is the NCLEX-RN Examination Detailed Test Plan (Nurse Educator Version)
• What is important to map for your program?• Where do you start?
– Do you start with only mapping the 4 main categories of the NCLEX-RN
– or include the Integrated Processes?– or include Bloom’s Taxonomy?– or include disease processes?
