What are the Types of Continuous Education Programs?
Continuous education programs for nurses can be broadly categorized into formal and informal learning opportunities. Formal programs include advanced degree programs such as Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), Master of Science in Nursing (MSN), and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP). Informal programs may consist of workshops, seminars, online courses, webinars, and conferences. Many of these programs offer Continuing Education Units (CEUs), which are essential for maintaining licensure.
