Award celebrates Nurse.com’s impact in empowering nurses and advancing career development
Nurse.com, a community where more than 3 million nurses can connect with peers, apply for jobs, and earn continuing education, today announced it has been named “Overall Career Prep Company of the Year” by EdTech Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization.
Part of the Relias family of brands, Nurse.com was selected from thousands of nominations for an award created to honor excellence in innovation, impact, and achievement in education technology. This marks the third consecutive year a Relias brand has been recognized.
“With most healthcare careers requiring continuous learning, certifications, and specialties, a generic career solution just isn’t enough,” said Steve Johansson, Managing Director at EdTech Breakthrough. “Nurse.com has demonstrated that it meets — and exceeds — those demands, delivering value to both sides of the workforce equation. We’re proud to name them ‘Overall Career Prep Company of the Year.’”
Informed by more than 30 years of experience and over 18 million continuing education (CE) course completions, Nurse.com offers an integrated platform for lifelong career support, combining accredited education and a nurse-dedicated talent marketplace with one of the largest nurse communities in the United States. For employers, the platform provides targeted digital advertising and recruiting solutions that help organizations reach, engage, and attract nurses ready to take the next step in their careers.
“This honor reflects the impact of a platform built by nurses, for nurses,” said Cara Lunsford, RN, Vice President of Community at Nurse.com. “With continuing education, career tools, and community all in one place, we’ve created somewhere nurses can truly learn, grow, and connect. And when nurses thrive, everything improves — from stronger teams to higher care quality.”
As one Nurse.com user, Brulinda Sanchez, RN, shared, “I’ve always been interested in organizations that empower. That’s why I decided to join Nurse.com. This platform is a valuable asset to the nursing community. The benefits they offer, such as free CE courses and the professional development resources, are so useful. I love being in a community of great nurses empowering other nurses and nursing students.”
That commitment to empowering nurses also includes recognizing employers that prioritize their well-being and growth. This year, Nurse.com partnered with Energage to establish the Top Workplaces for Nursing award, a new national recognition program spotlighting healthcare organizations with exceptional workplace cultures for nurses.
Together, these recognitions demonstrate a deep understanding of how to meaningfully support nurses, while honoring the organizations working alongside them to build better systems of care.
