Educational Programs

Online Learning Opportunities

IMS has partnered with Educational Dimensions, a Continuing Nursing Education Provider, to offer online education. Participants successfully completing the activity and submitting required documentation will be permitted to print a certificate of completion.

eLearning Activities are completely web-based asynchronous activities co-provided by Integrated Medical Systems International, Inc. and Educational Dimensions. Fees are underwritten by educational grants and commercial support provided by IMS. The faculty member for the learning activities discloses employment with IMS, thereby declaring a conflict of interest.

Educational Dimensions, the Continuing Education Provider for these education activities, is philosophically dedicated to the provision of quality continuing education to nurses and does not endorse products or services provided by the author's company.
