Accreditation represents quality.
Accreditation ensures quality.
Accreditation delivers quality.
Accredited courses help to ensure a high-level of quality education that is reflected in more consistent care in the workplace, ultimately resulting in more effective care for the patient.
We are proud of the fact that we have maintained a 50+ year (and counting) approved providership of continuing nursing education with ANCC, the largest accrediting body for registered nurses in the U.S. We are also an approved provider of continuing nursing education in California and Florida through those respective Boards of Nursing. Having these accreditations in place which is accepted through reciprocity with most all other states across the country reduces the hassle for a licensed nurse to get the continuing education they need to renew their license. Our goal is to continue obtaining and providing accredited courses for you.
Providing courses for the whole team
While continuing nursing education has been our mainstay, we know that nurses don’t work alone and are actually part of a larger interdisciplinary team; so it makes sense to also offer CE courses for Allied Healthcare providers, such as dietitians, occupational therapists, physical therapists, respiratory therapists, social workers, speech language pathologists, billing and coding professionals, and nursing home administrators.
