Virtual Event | May 14-15, 2024

Leadership skills are essential for nurses in any role. This program is designed to provide leadership development for nurses who have roles where they need to lead through influencing practice rather than through positional authority. Participants will complete the program equipped to lead from wherever they are within their organization.

This interactive program combines lecture, discussion, reflective practice, experiential learning and self-assessment. Taught by experienced nurse leaders, participants will develop leadership competencies to improve their effectiveness as a leader.
