Nurse Manager Certificate Program (NMCP)
January 8 - 23, 2025 from 1:00 - 2:30 PM
*Virtual Training

Clinically competent Charge Nurses and Unit Supervisors with strong leadership and communication skills are essential to delivering high quality health care to Maine's most vulnerable seniors and disabled adults. Nurses who serve in these roles must demonstrate both clinical expertise as well as the ability to function as frontline managers, often, with little or no formal leadership and/or supervisory training.

The Online Nurse Manager Certificate Program (NMCP) is a 9-hour course designed by Maine Health Care Association specifically for licensed nurses who are, or will be, serving as Unit Supervisors and/or Charge Nurses in a long term care, assisted living or residential care community. The goal is to provide the tools necessary to grow their leadership and communication skills as well as develop practical strategies for becoming more proficient at building an effective team, managing conflict, navigating challenging situations, directing staff and managing performance, taking a coaching approach to supervision, and more. Clinical competencies, blended with superb leadership skills, are valuable skills for the nurse leader who is committed to ensuring the health, safety and well-being of residents as well as providing the leadership necessary to improve the stability and success of their team.
