This summer I have been looking at the various certifications a new graduate nurse can earn to better their education and make their resume stronger (ex. CCRN). I will graduate in about a year with my BSN but I would like to start working on any certifications I can to make my application stronger than others that I will be competing with for job opportunities. I am almost certain I will want to work in a critical care setting so if anyone here knows of any certifications or courses that would look good for a new grad applying to a critical care unit in the hospital, please let me know. Especially if they are certifications I can start on as a student.
P.s. I work as a nurse extern primarily in the ER.
