The National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX®) is the final and most critical step for nursing graduates seeking licensure in the United States and Canada. Developed by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN), the NCLEX evaluates whether candidates possess the knowledge, judgment, and clinical decision-making skills required for safe and effective entry-level nursing practice.

At TerraLeap, we are committed to helping nursing graduates build the confidence and competence needed to succeed on the NCLEX and begin their professional nursing careers.

The NCLEX is designed to:

• Determine whether nursing candidates are prepared for entry-level professional practice

• Assess clinical judgment, patient safety, and evidence-based decision-making

• Evaluate competency across major client needs areas, including safe care, health promotion, psychosocial integrity, and physiological integrity

• Confirm readiness to provide safe, effective, and ethical nursing care

It serves as a licensure examination ensuring that all newly licensed nurses meet minimum professional standards.

Regulatory nursing authorities use the NCLEX to:

• Protect Public Safety: Ensure nurses entering practice can deliver safe and competent patient care

• Standardize Licensure Decisions: Apply a consistent national standard across nursing programs and jurisdictions

• Verify Clinical Readiness: Assess real-world decision-making rather than rote memorization

• Maintain Professional Integrity: Uphold high standards in nursing education and healthcare delivery
