Assigning continuing education credit to enduring materials.
Accreditation and approval criteria require that provider units calculate credit for enduring materials in a logical and defensible manner. Many nurses use enduring materials to stay up-to-date in their areas of practice. Most professional nursing journals include at least one article that is available for continuing education credit. Face-to-face activities do not fit into the budgets or schedules of many nurses.
