4. Sheri Taylor's CPNE online workshop

   joy1 replied to joy1's topic in Excelsior

   Base on my understanding so far--Sheri’s online workshop is presented via recorded videos. I did not use her RN bridge program for my theory exams, so I really can’t speak to that. But, I agree that she does have positive reviews, and has a high pass...

   joy1 replied to joy1's topic in Excelsior

   Awesome! Glad to know, didn't know about that. My plan is to read the guide from cover to cover, and then focus on the critical elements portion of the guide. So glad to know that EC will review careplans for free. Thanks for the advise! :)

    Just starting to prepare for CPNE and was wondering if anyone has used Sheri's online workshop "solely" and passed. I would have loved to attend a live workshop but can't afford the traveling expenses and all.... would like to get some input/advice, ...
