As all of you may already know AAMEP is the recognized nursing affiliate division of the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine and continues to move forward to align itself with other professional organizations. We are happy to announce our accepted membership into two organizations devoted to issues on certification.

1. National Organization for Competency Assurance (NOCA). Noca was established in 1977 to serve as a clearinghouse for information on the latest trends and issues of concern to practitioners and organizations focused on certification, licensure, and human recourses development. Noca is recognized as a leader in setting quality standards for credentialing programs for all types of businesses.

2. American Board of Nursing Specialties (ABNS). ABNS was established in 1991 to create uniformity in nursing certification and to increase public awareness of the value of quality certification. ABNS maintains a national peer review program for nursing specialty certifications.
