CGNE Seminar Series
During fall and spring semesters annually, the Tressa Nese and Helen Diskevich Center of Geriatric Nursing Excellence hosts the CGNE Seminar Series. While faculty and students from the Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing and other associated Penn State departments and colleges attend the seminars with gerontological content, we invite our clinical partners, as well as interested community members, to join these educational opportunities.
Many of the seminars provide 1.0 contact hour (nursing continuing professional development credit) for registered nurses, as the Penn State Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing is a PSNA-approved provider.
Seminars are free and open to the public. Registration is required.
Check out past seminars on our YouTube playlist.
