The examination encompasses questions derived from the eight core areas established by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling & Related Educational Programs (CACREP) along with five work behaviors identified by the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC). Each question included has undergone thorough review and field-testing, ensuring their relevance and accuracy at each administration.

There are compelling reasons for counseling students to undertake the NCE. This exam is a requirement for individuals seeking the National Certified Counselor (NCC) credential, and in many states, it serves as a prerequisite for counseling licensure. Additionally, military health providers recognize the NCE as one of the essential examinations for authorization to practice within their system.

The subjects covered in the NCE include:
