Does anyone know if there are residential education programs, perhaps in the summertime, where an RN can enroll in a program lasting for multiple weeks and get a great many continuing education credits done all at once? There seem to be few local options for continuing education where I live in rural northern California. Plus I wouldn't mind escaping the summer heat for a few weeks... Thanks for any information!

(and a little expensive...) I bet if you want to visit the Boston/New England area you could arrange the timing for a "CE Blitz" while here.I wouldn't overdo it on the CEs though, unless you just really want to go crazy. If you get more than you need you can't carry them over to the next licensing period...
