Nursing Times Clinical Skills

The Nursing Times Clinical Skills Series is a year-long programme of events with regular and free to attend webinars and a 2 day virtual conference. It is a place where the nursing profession can connect with like-minded colleagues to share learning, experiences and ideas.

Staying up to date with core clinical competencies is a priority and challenge for all nurse managers, leaders and nurses. Nursing Times has created this series of events to bring the nursing community together to advance and support clinical skills learning and development.
