This outcome-based certificate provides Canadian nurses and Internationally Educated Nurses (IENs) with an opportunity to strengthen their nursing skills and knowledge. The courses meet the needs of Canadian nurses returning to practice and Canadian nurses and IENs who have been assessed by the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO) as needing to meet designated theory and clinical elements. This certificate emphasizes holistic care, cultural diversity/sensitivity, critical thinking and reflective practice. Courses take a patient-focused, family centred and multidisciplinary approach. Current research, best practice and lived experience provide the foundation for learning. For more information, contact Gayle Bradley at 416-415-5000, ext. 2872, or gbradley@georgebrown.ca. |
