The Fuld National Institute for EBP is a part of The Ohio State University College of Nursing. In a statement from College of Nursing’s Dean Karen Rose on June 20, 2024, “… we are starting a strategic process to reimagine our Helene Fuld Health Trust National Institute for Evidence-based Practice in Nursing and Healthcare. To this end, we are working on a Fuld 2.0 strategic plan and vision that will build upon the EBP expertise and programs within the CON. Although all the details of ‘Fuld 2.0’ are not yet fully developed and discussions continue to align around the way forward, I feel it is important to share that some previous revenue generating operations at the Fuld (i.e. immersions, etc.) will sunset at the end of the 2024 calendar year.”
All continuing education programs and events (5-day EBP Immersion, Leading EBP program, Practice + Process = Quality program, Teaching EBP program, Systematic review, Overcoming Barriers for Implementation program, Implementation. Facilitation Program, and all online modular programs) will sunset at close of business on December 20, 2024, 5pm EST. You have until this date and time, if not earlier per a registration date, to complete all requirements and download your CE certificate. You will not have access to any course after this date. Contact the College of Nursing Office of Continuing Education at NursingCE@osu.edu for lost certificates and questions after December 20, 2024.
In addition, the DNP Postdoctoral Fellowship, Fuld Funding Opportunities, Excellence in EBP and Outcomes in Healthcare Designation, and EBP National Summit will sunset on December 30, 2024.
Thank you for your partnership with the Fuld. We wish you all the best on your evidence-based journeys!
