About the CNR credential — stated plainly

The Certified Nursing Recruiter™ (CNR) is a professional certification issued by The RN Network. It is not accredited by an external accrediting body, and we’ll never imply that it is. Its value comes from The RN Network’s authority in nursing — a 200,000+ member community and a live workforce-intelligence platform — and from the rigor of the curriculum and exam.
