Updated NCP exams for Practice Management (PM), Electronic Health Records (EHR), and Document Management (DM, previously ICS) will be released July 1, 2015. Classroom training and eLearning courses have already been updated and are available for enrollment. Updated NCP review webinars will be available for enrollment in June 2015.
In addition to updating the exam content, the program structure and titles will be changing slightly. The configuration portion of the exam will now be offered separately by product rather than as one combined System Configuration Training (SCT) exam. The new exam titles are shown below:
| NCP Certifications | Exams Required for Certification Prior to 7/1/2015 | Exams Required for Certification Effective 7/1/2015 |
| PM NCP (formerly EPM NCP) | SCT EPM |
PM Configuration PM Functionality |
| EHR NCP | SCT EHR |
EHR Configuration EHR Functionality |
| Document Management NCP (formerly ICS NCP) | ICS | Document Management |
All clients that wish to certify on the current version of the exams should complete them by June 30, 2015. Anyone who has not completed the exams required for certification by that date will need to complete the updated exams in order to earn their certification.
