Make the University of Kansas School of Nursing your destination for life long learning.
We are delighted to offer another year of exciting programs featuring preeminent leaders and scholars in healthcare today. We invite you to join us – whether a nurse, allied health, or administrative professional – as we continue to grow and develop our Continuing Education offerings.
Our programs have been tailored to meet content needs expressed by our many repeat attendees. In 2009, we are pleased to offer four Deep Discovery programs led by some of the top thought leaders in the country. Our Clinical Wizards program, aimed at the advanced practice community, will take place in February in a day spent with regional and national experts in practice, payment and policy.
The Emerging Trends series is co-sponsored this year by the University of Kansas Department of Health Policy and Management. Seven leading-edge presentations that feature the work of scholars and scientists from the University of Kansas Medical Center community are offered free of charge in this mid-day series. Topics are revolutionary and relevant – we invite you to get to know the experts in our midst!
This year we are pleased to recognize financial support from The Mary Ann Eisenbise Executive Development Series Fund, and our program co-sponsors:
