First, make sure your credentials are listed in the correct way after your name at the top of your resume. Following your name, list your highest earned degree, then your licensure, and then any other specializations and certifications. For example, Lauren Phillips, MSN, RN, CNS has a masters of science in nursing, is a registered nurse, and has earned a clinical nurse specialist certification. Then, at the bottom of your resume, create an “education and degrees” section and list all of your relevant education and degrees, including your licenses and accreditations with their expiration dates.
