Fortifying Practice Through Global Perioperative Fellowship an IEN’s Journey

Webinar | Webinar | 1 hour | English | Professional Development

Globally, the need for nurses will continuously skyrocket as the current geriatric population and healthcare demands rise. Internationally educated nurses are hired to support the growing needs of countries like Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK, and the USA. Although there are many benefits, importing this valuable resource can be challenging.

With the goal of paying forward through sharing, an internationally educated nurse (IEN) leader will take you on a unique neophyte to the new fellow success story of grace and grit in continuous motion. Successful global approaches to innovative leadership and creative education will be shared to highlight how true strategic collaborations propel acculturation and holistic excellence in IENs.
