Now even more classes from NNLM offer CNE credit! NNLM is excited to announce that we have expanded our offerings to include seven classes eligible for Continuing Nursing Education (CNE) credits, all free of charge:

1. PubMed Essentials On-Demand
2. Assessing Health Education Materials: Clearing the Way to Easy-to-Read Health Materials
3. Beyond the Binary
4. Health Literacy on Demand
5. How PubMed Works 
6. Making Sense of Numbers: Communicating Numerical Health Information
7. Prescription and Over the Counter Drugs: Supporting Patients with Evidence-Based Information

These classes offer Illinois CNE; however, nurses from several states may use these classes for CNE credits. The Medical Library Association (MLA) has reviewed the nursing continuing education requirements for all U.S. states and identified those that accept Illinois CNE.

The Region 4 states accepting Illinois CNE are Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming. Arizona, Colorado, and South Dakota do not have CNE requirements. We recommend verifying this information by checking the nursing education requirements in your state, professional organization, or certifying body.

NNLM serves as the CNE Presenter, while MLA is the Illinois CNE Sponsor. Information for the Illinois CNE Sponsor:

Medical Library Association
225 W. Wacker Drive, Suite 650
Chicago, IL 60606
License No. 236.000169

Participants interested in claiming CNE credits should complete the regular NNLM Training Evaluation after completion of a class, which will allow them to claim CNE through MEDLIB-ED. Questions can be directed to nto@utah.edu.
