Inspire
Since the early inception of our digital transformation in 2012, we have embraced technology as a catalyst to prepare nurses to adapt, innovate and provide the best care for all in the dynamic and complex reality of health care. Our vision fosters the development and delivery of learning experiences that educate nurse leaders inspired to generate, explore and apply nursing knowledge in whatever setting they choose to work.
