The MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS NURSES INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATION BOARD (MSNICB) was established by the International Organization of Multiple Sclerosis Nurses (IOMSN) to develop criteria for certification and re-certification and administer the Certification Examination for Multiple Sclerosis Nurses.

EMERITUS STATUS: MS nursing professionals who currently hold the MSCN credential but who retire from active practice may apply for Emeritus Status, which will be conferred on a one-time basis and will not require renewal, as it will be valid indefinitely. Those who are granted Emeritus Status will be able to use the designation of MSCN-e but will no longer be able to use the original MSCN designation.
