Calgary success!

PRIMED is pleased to announce the Canadian RN review preparation course at the University of Calgary April 24-25 was a success!

Students from University of Calgary and Mont Royal College joined us for the educationally packed weekend. We really enjoyed teaching this group of students as they were attentive, used critical thinking and asked interesting questions.

For example, students had many questions about the H1N1 influenza outbreak so we spent some time reviewing  that as they are likely to encounter questions on the exam on this.

The students told us their confidence greatly improved and they feel much more ready for the CRNE in June, 2010.

We wish them all the luck in their future careers as nurses!

Weekend workshop success!

PRIMED is happy to report the CRNE prep workshop this past weekend held at Langara College in Vancouver, BC went very well!

Laura and Marlene had a fun time facilitating this group of bright students. The students asked great questions and had excellent examples and tips to share with the rest of the class. Students were from various background from new grads to international nurses from the UK and the Phillipines. Some participants had been unsuccessful on the past exam and were taking the workshop to improve their knowledge and confidence.

The students found the workshop very helpful and feel much more ready to take their exam in June.
We wish them the best of luck and success in their nursing career!
