NPs: Does Your Job Fulfill Your Expectations?
To measure how satisfied you are with your work, we surveyed more than 1,300 clinicians like you. Compare your experiences to those of your colleagues, starting with the key question: Would you do it again?
Many of your colleagues responded to the question “What else affects your job satisfaction?” with “Support for continuing learning” and “Educational opportunities.” This is reflected by 54% of survey respondents who stated that “Reimbursement for professional development” was an important benefit (see “Top 7 Benefits” above).
This year, 76% of respondents reported receiving remuneration—either money or time allowed or both—for CE, virtually unchanged from last year. Specifically,
,- 24% received $0
- 10%, less than $500
- 13%, between $500 - $1,000
- 19%, between $1,001 - $1,500
- 19%, between $1,501 - $2,000
- 16%, more than $2,000
with average monetary compensation per year up approximately $350 over last year.
Responses to the amount of time you are allotted annually for CME ranged from “None” to “more than 5 weeks.”
- 29%, no time
- 33%, less than 1 week
- 33%, 1-2 weeks
- 2%, 3 weeks
- 1%, 4 weeks
- 0.11%, 5 weeks
- 2%, more than 5 weeks.
