It's funny. I have wanted to further my education, but I found that I did not understand things occurring in my office such as discussions about research and healthcare politics- both heavily affect nursing. I don't get alot of opportunity to attend seminars, dinners, or experiences, outside of work. My work doesn't pay for it either.
So I look for topics on my own time. Plus I went back to school. Both have helped me stay on top of things and look at the bigger picture a little better.

I've heard that nurses only get continuing education to meet state requirements for licensure. I don't think that this is the case, but I wanted to ask others.
Why do you pursue continuing education?
