RCN Learn provides all the organisation’s learning resources in one place for first time

Bringing together content from the RCN and RCNi in a single, searchable, portal, RCN Learn is the “go to” learning hub for the nursing profession.

Wherever nurses are in their career, they can access hundreds of quality-assured educational resources to support their clinical and professional development – improving nursing practice, patient experience and ultimately health outcomes. 

All content sits behind a secure log-in, giving individuals the flexibility to search and filter on any device for their own unique learning journey.

According to which category a person is in, they may have limited access to specific resources:

·       users registered with a free account: access a selection of learning resources, including standards and frameworks which are essential to care delivery across the UK 

·       RCN member: access all the above plus hundreds of clinical and non-clinical learning resources. NMC registrants can access RCN’s purpose-built tool to help them build, store and track their evidence for revalidation quickly and clearly 

·       RCNi Plus subscriber: access RCNi Plus content including thousands of RCNi peer-reviewed articles and learning modules

·       paid-for resources: access courses for organisations and individuals (members and non-members) to buy. These include the RCN Leadership programmes, RCN Infection Prevention and Control, RCN Leadership in Sustainability, the RCN Cultural Ambassador Programmes, RCN Leadership in Physical and Mental Health Outcomes, and RCNi products.

RCN General Secretary & Chief Executive Pat Cullen said: “This is an exciting new development in our commitment to providing the very best evidence-based learning resources for nursing staff. 

“For nursing to keep advancing, the true potential in every one of us must be reached.

“RCN Learn will help support members to realise that potential and attain their career goals. I hope it will empower nursing staff to embed an education and learning culture within their care delivery.”
