AWHONN requires Intermediate participants to complete the online prerequisite education before class. GoalsNMynd requires completion at least 72 hours before the scheduled class begins. This is a completion deadline; it does not mean the prerequisite is 72 hours long. The prerequisite is included with the participant materials purchased through Kendall Hunt. To receive nursing contact hours/CME credit, participants must attend the full in-person course and successfully complete the post-course online knowledge validation test and evaluation. After registration, you will receive material-purchase instructions and the exact venue details for your selected Madison or Fort Myers date.
