This is an important accomplishment achieved through hours of hard work in preparation for the CWSP® Examination. Qualified candidates for certification in wound management are required to achieve a passing score on the examination in order to earn the designation CWSP®. Board certification in wound management is achieved only through a rigorous process by the American Board of Wound Management (ABWM). Those who become certified in wound management through the ABWM have earned the professional designation of CWSP® and are an elite group of healthcare professionals involved in wound management.
