- Participation in co-provided courses with the Office of Continuing Medical Education, Texas Tech University, and other agencies/facilities in the Lubbock region.
- Provision of a Personal Order Service whereby courses are specifically designed and taught on-site for hospitals and agencies throughout West Texas.
Pride in offering quality continuing nursing education and dedicated service to nurses in West Texas and beyond.
Accreditation
The Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Anita Thigpen Perry School of Nursing Continuing Nursing Education Program is accredited as a provider of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation.
Personal Order CNE
In 1982, the CNE Program began the Personal Order Service whereby courses were specifically designed and taught on-site for hospitals and agencies in West Texas. This program has been referred to as "CNE on Wheels" and is very beneficial to nursing staff who find it difficult to travel across West Texas to seek their continuing education. Currently, the CNE Program maintains approximately 10 contracts per year:
- Area Health Education Center (AHEC)
- Lubbock State School, Lubbock, Texas
- Andrews County Health Department
- Medical Arts Hospital, Lamesa, Texas
- McCamey Hospital, McCamey, Texas
- Medical Center Hospital, Odessa, Texas
- Upton County Convalescent Center, McCamey, Texas
