Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

The NLNAC is an accrediting commission that serves nursing programs at the vocational, associate degree, baccalaureate, and graduate levels. The AACN serves baccalaureate and higher degree programs and does not accredit at the associate degree level. NSNA and ANA are not accrediting bodies for schools of nursing.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

The national professional organization representing all registered nurses in the United States is the American Nurses Association. AACN is the national voice for baccalaureate and higher degree nursing education programs in the United States. The NLN is an organization whose mission is to promote excellence in nursing education to build a strong and diverse nursing workforce. The ICN is the world's first and widest international organization for health professionals.
