Ring in the New Year with Recertification!
With the New Year comes the opportunity to submit for recertification through LearningBuilder!  Check your inbox – nurses who are due to recertify in 2024 recently received a notice from ONCB with details on recertification. If you have had a change in email or mailing address, please contact ONCB to ensure your record is correct (oncb@oncb.org; 312-321-5198). Recertification applications are due June 30, 2024 but early submissions are encouraged!

In need of Category A credit? ONCB is here to help! Check out BONEafide, a list of continuing education activities identified by ONCB as suitable for Category A. Be sure to bookmark this page as the list if updated throughout the year.

Get ahead on your exam preparation with our flashcards!
Each set of 50 e-flashcards is like a tiny textbook to help focus your study. Each page contains a prompt written in the same style as the live exam and provides analysis and the reference. More than three-quarters of the scored questions on the exam cover degenerative disease, sports injuries, metabolic conditions and orthopaedic trauma. This is a valuable addition to the ONC practice exam modules. Learn more about these flashcards and more exam preparation products on our website: https://www.oncb.org/product-category/oncbcourses/onc-prep-products/.

Are you are missing a pin?
Lost your certification pin or certificate? ONCB has replacement pins available for all credentials...ONC, ONP-C, and OCNS-C...at the e-store (https://www.oncb.org/promoproducts/). Replacement certificates are also available for sale to help you promote yourself as a board-certified orthopaedic nurse.
