Nursing Leaders Can Visit the World's Leading Provider of E-Learning at Booth #1028 to Discover the Latest Innovations in Online Education

TAMPA, Fla., Sept. 14, 2011 — Universities interested in expanding their educational reach through online learning will want to stop by the Bisk Education booth at the National League of Nursing's (NLN) 2011 Summit. As a pioneer and leader in online education, Bisk will be sharing its highly scalable learning solutions and the proven benefits they bring to universities and students. The event is being held at Florida's Orlando World Center Marriott on September 21-24, and provides nursing education leaders with an opportunity to formulate strategies for improving innovations in teaching, simulation, technology and leadership.

Through its University Alliance division, Bisk has helped leading universities nationwide expand enrollment and profitability while maintaining high academic standards. This is achieved through the company's 6 Principles of Excellence That Drive Student Success, an approach comprised of Strategic Planning, Program Development & Instructional Design, Systems & Integration, Brand & Image Management, Enrollment Management and Relationship Management; Bisk will delve further into these key areas at the NLN Education Summit.

Bisk will also be emphasizing its track record of e-learning success stories. One proud achievement is its partnership with Jacksonville University's School of Nursing. Since 2001, Bisk has been facilitating its RN to BSN online program, expanding the school's offerings with the MSN online program in 2010. This decade of collaboration has given Bisk a keen appreciation for the needs of nursing education programs and their students.

"We're looking forward to meeting some of today's leading thinkers in nursing education," says Dr. Judith Dwyer, Chief Academic Officer for Bisk Education. "The importance of continuing education for the nursing profession cannot be stressed enough, and with 40 years of experience, a dedication to innovation and our 6 Principles of Excellence, I am confident that Bisk Education can help universities and nursing students achieve their goals."
