Adult CCRN Certification Review Course Institutional License on Disc
Your nurses are experts at what they do every day. Help them validate their specialty knowledge and elevate patient care by becoming certified. AACN’s Adult CCRN Certification Review Course provides the tools your nurses need to confidently prepare for their acute/critical care nursing certification exam.
Course Overview
This comprehensive course provides an in-depth review of all content areas covered in the most current CCRN Adult, test plan, including detailed body systems topics as well as “Professional Caring and Ethical Practice” topics identified in the AACN Synergy Model for Patient Care.
Features include:
- A flexible, modular design that supports a variety of learning styles and allows repeating to ensure optimal retention
- An overview of nursing management for adult patients targeted to the content areas identified on the test plans
- Test-taking strategies to guide each nurse’s approach to exam questions and increase their success in providing answers

Intended for purchase by hospitals and health systems, our Institutional Review Course on disc enables organizations to prepare an unlimited number of nurses for their CCRN Adult certification exam. To maximize the value of the course, AACN also offers an associated Group Participant Package (GPP). Purchased separately for each learner, the GPP supplements the recorded course content and allows learners to obtain CE hours.
Who Should Take the Course?
Whether your team provides direct care or remote care, or influences the care provided to acutely/critically ill adult patients, our certification review course helps support their certification journey. It is an ideal study resource for nurses pursuing CCRN Adult certification via any pathway option:
- CCRN Direct Care Pathway – For nurses who provide direct care to acutely/critically ill adult patients
- CCRN Tele-critical Care Pathway – For nurses who work in a tele-critical care setting, monitoring and caring for acutely/critically ill adult patients from a remote location
- CCRN Knowledge Professional Pathway – For nurses who influence the care delivered to acutely/critically ill adult patients, but do not primarily or exclusively provide direct care
Please note: The course still references the former CCRN-E and CCRN-K credential titles, which are now CCRN – Tele-critical Care Pathway and CCRN – Knowledge Professional Pathway, respectively. This does not impact the course content, which aligns with the Exam Test Plan for the certifications noted above.
