The Wound, Ostomy, & Continence Nursing Certification Board is a not-for-profit international organization that certifies registered nurses specializing in wound, ostomy, continence, and foot care. The private company is based in Milwaukee, WI. The board sets national standards to validate nurses' specialized knowledge, offers initial certification, recertification through a professional growth program, and exam preparation resources. Certification requires maintaining active nursing licensure and adherence to ethical standards, with a formal process for credential review and appeals. The organization provides programs to support certificants, such as an employer discount voucher program, a benevolence fund, and recognition awards. Exam fees are competitively priced with discounts for multiple specialties and applicants from developing countries. The board's credentials are accredited by the Accreditation Board for Specialty Nursing Certification and the National Commission for Certifying Agencies. The company was founded in 1978. The CEO is Cindy Lemek.
