Customer Reviews

LOVED IT! The facilitators/presenters know how to teach! Purchasing the course was worth every penny. It will aid me in not only taking the exam, but it’s an EXCELLENT resource for any cardiac nurse for continued use (refreshers, etc.) Y’all did a great job!

— Erin —

This course was amazing and helped me so much. It covered everything that I needed to learn to pass my CMC. The content was very clear and explained extremely well!

— Nicolas —

This is the best nursing reference book! I find this book organized and comprehensive. Most of the other books I have been using to study read like boring textbooks, however this book is outstanding. I highly recommend this book to any nurse who is interested in cardiovascular nursing, regardless of whether or not you are working towards a certification.

— Amazon Customer —

…your book is effective at making practical the clinical knowledge base needed for excellent patient care. I’d definitely recommend both volumes to all colleagues as a means of elevating their nursing practice. I cannot say enough good about it! I’ve enjoyed the time reading the material, especially the links to clinical practice. These volumes will serve well into advanced practice nursing.

— MB from Alabama —

Excellent course. Even for those who are not taking the CMC or CCRN exam. I have a lot of critical care review books. This by far is the best. Thank you!

— Catherine —

This is an excellent review course that helped me pass the CMC test on the first attempt.

— Max —

A wealth of information. I would recommend this course (CMC Certification Review) to every cardiac nurse. I think this course was awesome and refer back to it from time to time. Awesome class!

— Carol M. —

I wanted to let you know that I just taught a CV Nursing Exam Review Course and recommended CNEA’s product of the 800 Review Questions for the CVN Certification Exam. I had 18 participants and hope that all of them will order. I have also purchased the product and love it. Thank you for all of your hard work and your dedication to improving the practice of cardiovascular nurses.

— Sonya H., Clinical Nurse Specialist —

Your courses are the best! They have so much meat to them and just great bedside practicality. Every class gets better and better. You are very knowledgeable and practical in your presentations.
