Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

As a result of the introduction of the PREP standards, professional development and continuing education are now a central part of every nurse's life. This handbook offers practical guidance for anyone involved in professional development, with contributions by specialists who address the broader context of life-long learning and continuing education, before providing advice on relevant aspects of nursing practice, such as reflective practice and clinical supervision. Topics such as open learning, profiling and portfolios, and accreditation of prior experiential learning are covered in detail, and the book's practical focus is complemented by an underpinning of critical analysis and discussion.
