2024 NLN Education Summit (National League for Nursing)

A Daring Proposition: Competency-Based Education

If you’re in nursing education, you’re likely somewhere on the path to implementing competency-based education (CBE) in your program. Simulation can help you create a comprehensive, well-rounded educational pathway for your students to learn and demonstrate their knowledge and readiness for practice.

Join us at booth #200 to explore new solutions and innovative strategies that address day-to-day challenges that impact nursing educators.
