The Learning Nurse Resource Network is all about informal nurse learning, continuing education and professional development. This Learning Nurse website provides an independent, free and safe resource for nurses to assess, maintain and enhance their professional competence.  

Our primary focus here is on two major components. The first is our Test and Quiz Center. This Center assists nurses to identify areas where they may need to refresh or update their nursing knowledge, skills and competencies. Our 101 online nursing quizzes with 6,306 questions are also a fun and interactive way to review and learn!

The second component is our e-Learning Center. Here we provide resource lists and access to a variety of online courses and learning modules for nurses. The nursing practitioner has convenient and cost-effective resources for online learning to achieve her professional development objectives.  

We also have other nursing resources available here. We have personality diagnostic tools, and links to medical videos, podcasts and health websites. Finally, we intend to add other tools to assist nurses to assess, manage, track and record their professional development and continuing education activities.

NEW: We just added a new section called Self-Assessment Tools. These 26 print and online forms enable nurses to evaluate themselves against 644 competencies in core / basic, advanced and specialized nursing areas. Use the results of these self assessments to develop your professional development / learning plans.

NEW: We have added 10 new nursing quizzes to our Test and Quiz Center. Our newest quizzes are on ear pain, genitourinary disorders, nasal and sinus disorders, cytology, organ systems, histology, the lymphatic system, human development, word roots, and the muscular system. We have also updated and added hundreds more questions to our medication calculations and pediatric nursing quizzes.

We now have 101 online nursing quizzes with 6,306 questions for your competency self assessment and informal / interactive learning! Enjoy this fun way of learning.
