When nursing regulators learn to communicate effectively across jurisdictions, disciplines, and regulatory environments, everyone benefits. We're proud that Meredith Parris, NCBON Chief Legal Officer, recently helped shape NCSBN's new Communicating Across Regulatory Settings learning journey, bringing their expertise to a national effort focused on strengthening regulatory practice and public protection.

Subject matter experts from boards of nursing and NCSBN came together in Chicago last week to help shape the Communicating Across Regulatory Settings learning journey for Meridians.
