Lippincott Professional Development

Build a culture of learning

As a clinical education and nurse competency validation solution, Lippincott® Professional Development delivers 500+ online courses to help staff acquire practice-based knowledge; build critical thinking, competence and confidence; and earn continuing education credits. As a vital part of the Lippincott® Solutions suite, all of Lippincott Professional Development’s assignable courses map directly to Lippincott® Procedures and Lippincott® Advisor to support education in the areas of nurse onboarding and cross-training, and to address knowledge gaps — all while reducing variability of care.

A safer environment

Our continual updates help ensure direct-care nurses always learn the very latest from trusted, authoritative sources — promoting patient safety and productivity while aiding compliance.

Lifelong learning

Staff can access high-quality nurse education resources via assigned courses or self-directed plans. When used with Lippincott® Journal CE & Certification Review, nurses can advance and practice at top of their license.

Teaching, not administering

With a wide variety of readily available materials, nurse educators can invest their time in teaching and in working directly with staff rather than in managing administrative labor, research and development.

Learn from current, evidence-based content

Lippincott Professional Development is developed in partnership with leading organizations, including the Joint Commission, and the Association for Nursing Professional Development. Nurse education resources are continually updated to ensure timeliness and accuracy.

Ensure up-to-date compliance at every level

Our education resources help staff comply with a variety of entities, such as the HIPAA, OSHA, state licensure agencies and the Joint Commission Centers of Excellence. The materials also cover family and gender roles and relationships as well as nursing professional development content from the ANPD.

Meet accreditation requirements

We co-develop courses with Joint Commission Resources (JCR) that promote patient safety and compliance, value-based purchasing, disease-specific care, certification in heart failure and stroke, and more. Experts at JCR verify the courses meet accreditation and certification requirements.

Integrate with an existing LMS or stand alone

Lippincott Professional Development courses can either operate in the Lippincott Solutions native platform as stand-alone nurse education resources or easily integrate with existing learning management systems. Either way, nurse educators can customize courses while tracking their staffs’ learning progress and competency.

Lippincott creates and sustains a culture of clinical excellence

With Lippincott Professional Development, direct-care nurses can build and check their knowledge to achieve their career aspirations. Preceptors can self-enroll in preceptor training and build skills essential for advancement. And nurse educators can focus on teaching rather than on developing materials.
