About ILNA The Individual Learning Needs Assessment (ILNA) method is the certification renewal process that launched in 2016. The enhanced approach helps to ensure that every certified nurse has current knowledge in the subject areas represented by the credential. How it works As a currently certified nurse, you are armed with your individualized requirements to renew your certification. You received this list either through a score report after you passed a certification test or through a learning needs assessment. The report identifies your knowledge strengths and areas for growth. To renew your certification, you ll need to complete professional development activities to strengthen your knowledge. You earn points for certification renewal upon completion of these activities. Detailed information about ILNA can be found by visiting www.oncc.org/ilna. ILNA Points for You, Quality Care for Your Patients Pull your learning needs assessment and grab a highlighter.
