BCEN's Exciting New Offerings for Nurses
The Board of Certification for Emergency Nursing (BCEN) is thrilled to announce the launch of new pediatric emergency nursing and trauma nursing specialty review courses. These courses, available on the award-winning BCEN Learn platform, are designed to enhance the continuous growth of emergency and trauma nurses.
Expanding Educational Resources
With the introduction of the CPEN Review Course: Essentials of Pediatric Emergency Nursing and the TCRN Review Course: Essentials of Trauma Nursing, BCEN Learn broadens its commitment to providing comprehensive certification preparation and continuing education resources for emergency nurses. These two review courses represent a significant addition to BCEN's educational offerings, aligning with Emergency Nurses Week and Pediatric Nurses Week.
Specialized Knowledge for Specialized Care
As BCEN CEO Janie Schumaker emphasizes, "Pediatric emergency and trauma patients deserve care from nurses who bring specialized knowledge and skills to the bedside." This reflects the organization's dedication to equipping nurses with the necessary tools to excel in their field, ensuring that they deliver exceptional patient care.
Course Highlights and Features
Designed by nurses for nurses, these review courses offer a wealth of resources and materials tailored for various learning styles. Here are some key features:
Comprehensive Learning Modules
The courses include detailed modules based on the exam content outline for CPEN and TCRN. This ensures that nurses are well-prepared for their certification exams.
Flexible Access and Interactive Content
Available anytime and on any device, the self-paced format allows nurses to study in short bursts or dedicate longer sessions as needed. The interactive elements and high-quality visuals help to reinforce learning and retention.
Useful Study Aids
Nurses can take advantage of printable study guides and access 175 exam-style practice questions. Thanks to the generous offer, those registering for the courses will also receive the practice exam at no additional charge, contributing to a total of 24 CE credits.
