Program Description
The Perioperative Post-Diploma Certificate is designed to provide Registered Nurses and Licensed Practical Nurses the theoretical and technical knowledge required to provide safe competent care across all phases of the perioperative process. The program is offered in a blended format with theory courses delivered asynchronously online, while skills labs and clinical practicums are delivered in person. Laboratory components will be delivered once a week during the duration of the perioperative Nursing Skills lab which will be delivered over 8 weeks. Clinical practicums will occur over a duration of 8 weeks, which could be subject to change based on availability of practicum placements. Students should prepare for the possibility of daytime, evening, night, or weekend shifts for the duration of the clinical experience. Knowledge and experience gained through learning theory, skills labs, and work integrated learning provides the learner with the required knowledge and skills to work in a perioperative environment
This program is delivered in a blended mode.

Program FAQs
Our perioperative program offers work-integrated learning placements in surgical centers within Southern Alberta. It is also the responsibility of the learner for all costs associated with transportation and accommodation as travel is an expectation of all work-integrated learning courses.
