Description
Building on the success of Foundations of School Nursing, this advanced continuing professional development (CPD) program equips school nurses with the tools to strengthen their leadership, enhance practice effectiveness, and promote student health and safety. Through six interactive modules, participants will explore advanced topics including policy development, care coordination, legal documentation, data utilization, communication, and conflict resolution. Designed for nurses in all school settings—whether lead, district, private, charter, or per diem—this program frames and structures professional growth to align with the SCASN Vision, Core Values, and the NASN Framework for 21st-century school nursing practice.
