During this course, you will be developing an Individual Professional Practice Document (IPPD) that will identify the regulations, requirements, certification, and rules of the state in which you plan to practice as an APRN upon graduation. As you complete certain modules, you will be asked to add to the IPPD, so it is essential that you keep it handy and edit it along the way as you receive feedback from your faculty. Adding to the document with each assignment will produce a complete document by the end of the course. Using the document you submitted in Week 1, please add the following information:

In addition, Appendix 2A in the Buppert text will provide you with information as well.
