Company Overview
About the NBME®:
The NBME® is an independent, mission-driven organization that provides high-quality assessments for the health professions. We serve the health of the public through state-of-the art assessment of health professionals, and we are committed to research and development in evaluation and measurement.
The NBME® delivers valid information about health care knowledge and skills to score recipients to support important inferences and decisions. We develop the three-step United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE®), which provides a common evaluation system and established minimum standards for all doctors of medicine seeking an initial license to practice medicine in the United States. The USMLE® is a joint Program of the NBME® and the Federation of State Medical Boards. Results of the USMLE® are reported to all licensing authorities in the United States and its territories for use in granting the initial license to practice medicine.
With over 100 years of expertise in assessment for medical licensing, NBME® continues its pursuit of new and reliable approaches to advance the standard of care. Our global offerings encompass the spectrum of health professionals along the continuum of education, training, and certification, and practice. Learn more at www.NBME.org®
