Certified Nurse Educator (CNE and CNEn) Review
Wittmann-Price, Godshall, Wilson · 5th Edition
Complete chapter-by-chapter study guide aligned with Certified Nurse Educator (CNE and CNEn) Review (5th Edition). Includes summaries, learning objectives, and NCLEX-style practice questions for all 18 chapters.
Overview
Certified Nurse Educator (CNE and CNEn) Review (5th Edition) is organized into 7 parts that mirror the CNE and CNEn exam blueprint, covering exam specifics, facilitating learning, learner development and socialization, assessment and evaluation, curriculum design, and scholarship and leadership. This study guide is an original, independently written companion built around that same part-by-part structure, so you review in the same order Wittmann-Price, Godshall, and Wilson organize the material and always know where a topic belongs. For every part you get a plain-English summary of the key concepts, learning objectives laid out up front, and its own exam-style practice questions with full rationales — written from scratch, not pulled from the review book's own question bank. You'll start with exam specifics, then move through facilitating learning across classroom, online, clinical, and simulated settings, before covering learner development, socialization, and civic engagement. From there you'll work through competency-based assessment, item writing, curriculum design, and program policies, before finishing with scholarship, leadership, quality improvement, and functioning within the academic community. Every part is matched to how the 5th Edition organizes the material so your review stays aligned with the CNE/CNEn exam blueprint. As you study you'll practice the applied educator reasoning the CNE and CNEn certification exams test, moving fluently between classroom, clinical, and online teaching scenarios, and you'll build the habit of connecting a teaching scenario to the specific competency domain it's really testing. Whether you're using this alongside the review book or as a standalone refresher, this printable companion is built to be highlighted, annotated, and kept through your whole exam prep, from your first read-through all the way to test day. Original, independently written, and not affiliated with the publisher.
Aligned with the NLN Certified Nurse Educator (CNE) and CNEn certification exam blueprints — the practice questions mirror how these exams test the full scope of the academic nurse educator role.
