AAPACN Copyright Policy

Please read carefully as we have recently changed our policy on the use of AAPACN copyright materials and are no longer granting reprint permission in most cases. Only intended users of AAPACN education and certification programs are eligible for CE hours or qualify to take certification exams.

Any violation of AAPACN’s copyright policy may result in membership termination and loss of all AAPACN certification credentials.
