RCN Accreditation

We recently completed an accredited elearning resource for nurses. Although there is no formal points system for nurses, as there is with CPD for physicians, nurses none-the-less need to undergo professional development throughout the year. This offers a fantastic opportunity for Pharma to reach an influential customer group.

The resource we developed combined our expertise in producing bespoke elearning programs with our in-depth medical writing and training experience. The program provided all of the essential elements that are required to develop an engaging and highly effective training program and included a combination of writing styles, quizzes, pop-ups, animations and interactive video case studies.

The content was thoroughly reviewed at the RCN by an educational reviewer (who checked the content for educational clarity) and a content reviewer (an expert in the field who checked the content for accuracy).

Getting a resource accredited, by any professional body, is not always easy and can be time-consuming, but the rewards pay dividends. Once approved, we were able to add the RCN accreditation logo to the program and packaging, thus lifting it from ‘just another pharma-sponsored resource’, to an independently endorsed professional development tool.

The great thing about this solution is that it can be tailored to suit any product, therapy area and budget.
