WTA Your Way


Release Date: 2/14/2023

Expiration Date: 2/14/2026

If you're looking to enhance your basic wound care knowledge, look no further than WTA Your Way; a self-enrolled, self-paced, online continuing education program designed for non-specialty nurses who provide basic wound care at the bedside. Unlike the Wound Treatment Associate (WTA) Program, learners can hand-pick the content they want to learn by purchasing individual modules that best suit their learning needs, or choose to purchase the entire package without the need for a Course Coordinator. We invite you to design your own educational journey that will enhance your knowledge and skills resulting in improved patient outcomes.

Learner Outcome: As a result of successfully completing this program, learners will report how gaining an in-depth knowledge and skills to meet the needs of patients with wounds will improve patient outcomes because patients will receive the care and training, they need within the location of care delivery.

Relevant Financial Relationships: The planners and faculty for this activity have no relevant relationships with ANCC/ACCME-defined ineligible companies to disclose. All relevant relationships with ineligible companies were mitigated according to the Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education.

Target Audience: RN, Nurse Practitioners, Health Care Professionals who work with WOC patients.

To Receive Credit:

  • Complete the activity in its entirety.
  • Complete/submit the online evaluation. Evaluation is required for each module as well as the overall evaluation for the entire activity.
  • Print out your certificate and/or save to your computer. It will also be saved to your CEC account.
