b. "The intention of the model is to provide educational modules so that the new graduate does not need to work with a preceptor.".
c. "The intention of the model is to have the new graduate take and pass the NCLEX® Exam, obtain employment, and then enter a transition program.".
d. "The intention of the model is to complete the formalized transition program within 6 weeks.".


C
The NCSBN's Transition to Practice model is a regulatory model that is designed to promote public safety by supporting the role transition experience of newly licensed nurses. The new graduate would first take and pass the NCLEX® Exam, obtain employment, and then enter the transition program. There are 5 transition modules with content focused on communication and teamwork, patient-centered care, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, and informatics. The time period for completion of the program is 6 months with an expected additional 6 months of ongoing support. Because of individual state's rights, the NCSBN encourages states to adopt this model; however, they does not have the authority to mandate adoption of the model. This model does not act in replacement of a preceptor in the clinical practice area.
