Preparing tomorrow’s nurse educators
Janet Morgan, PhD, RN, led this year’s NYSNA faculty camp, presenting on the Academic Nurse Educator Certification Review.
The 1½-day workshop awarded 10 contact hours and prepared participants to sit for the certification exam. Twenty-eight nursing faculty from various parts of the state attended, including Plattsburgh, Long Island, Mt. Vernon, Bronx, and the Capital District. Participants found the workshop helpful and said that the enhanced learning and innovative teaching strategies gave them the confidence to proceed with the exam.
