Abstract
A competent workforce supported by continuing professional development (CPD) is the foundation of successful healthcare organizations. Those who invest in CPD recognize the impact it has on optimizing performance and ensuring the delivery of safe, quality care. The 2016 follow-up report to the 2011 Future of Nursing report recommended that healthcare organizations prioritize interprofessional and lifelong learning so “nurses are prepared to work in evolving healthcare environments.” 1,2 CPD enables nurses and all members of the healthcare team to improve their knowledge, skills, and practice to ensure they're confident and competent to provide evidence-based care that positively impacts patient outcomes.3
