Workshop C: Legal Essentials for Nurse Educators, from Educational Malpractice to AI

Wednesday, September 18  |  8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

Nursing education requires a complex set of skills, education background and continuing knowledge updates. One aspect of nursing education that is often overlooked, but typically dreaded is the legal aspects of being a nurse educator. Whether it is the issue of how to deal with the student who threatens to sue, the academic honesty issue, or the emerging appropriate use of technology (AI anyone?), this session will examine the most pertinent legal issues facing academic nurse educators.

Program Objectives:
Analyze the most common legal issues in nursing education and identify strategies nurse educators can implement to prevent the common legal issues

Identify the emerging legal issues that are impacting nursing education

Presenter:

Linda Christensen, EdD, JD, RN, CNE, FAAN | Chief Legal Officer National League for Nursing
