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.
