WELCOME TO CONTINUING EDUCATION AT MICHENER A Word from our Director, Continuing Education and International, on behalf of Michener’s Senior Management Team

W

elcome to yet another exciting academic year. We are excited to share with you a diversity of online, hybrid and classroom-based programs from Canada’s only school within a health care network spanning community, primary, hospital, rehabilitation and long-term care.

Mohammad Salhia

Our programs continue to reflect the ongoing needs of our provincial and national health care system. We have built on the strength of very important collaborations that continue to respond to COVID-19. For example, Michener supported the Province of Ontario in preparing training programs for Resident Support Aides and Vaccinators as we continued adjusting to life in the pandemic. Our team has also further grown exciting programs like Critical Care Nursing, which now supports 10 hospitals in Southern Ontario, and continues to build a series of exciting collaborations with various organizations to deliver exceptional programs to our colleagues in practice.

Our focus in 2022/23 is to continue building community. The Convergence2022 Conference took this to new heights as we welcomed our guests for a full, three-day virtual conference. We featured many incredible speakers, and a new podcast series that we will continue to build and archive for you. Our community, of course, is centred around our students and learners across our many programs. The work that we do in Continuing Education is ultimately about you – your needs, your skills, your careers, and your experience as a member of our Michener family. We promise to work hard this year to build on this tradition, and also to find new ways to stay connected to our students, wherever you are in Ontario, Canada, or around the world.

Needless to say, it has been a busy year. What we’ve learned as a teaching community is that regardless of the circumstance, our Continuing Education team at Michener thrives.

We relentlessly support and care for students, each other, our wellbeing and resilience, and the systems of care around us. We have learned that the power of collaboration without borders allows us to achieve incredible feats with significant, long-lasting impacts to the health and long-term care communities. Continuing Education at Michener has entered a new chapter as we engage our learners and partners with a renewed sense of why we all do what we do, while realizing the true power of Michener’s integration with Canada’s pre-eminent hospital network as we navigate toward a postpandemic world.

I end this note with a heartfelt expression of tremendous gratitude on behalf of our Senior Management Team and program staff. Thank you all for putting your faith in us at Michener as you advance your professional development journeys. We wish you the best of luck as we enter a new academic year.

Regards,

Mohammad Salhia, HBSc, MEd, PhD (student) Director, Continuing Education The Michener Institute of Education at UHN

ACUTE AND CRITICAL CARE NURSING The Acute Care and Critical Care Nursing Programs at Michener were developed through a unique collaboration between the CE and the Practice-Based Education at the University Health Network. The program was developed by seasoned acute care and critical care nurses in concert with a team of education specialists and leaders to deliver a learning product that is modern, relevant, and reflective of current practice needs.

These programs are taught using a hybrid and spiraled curriculum, delivering core content about body systems through a series of online modules. For each body system, learners are guided through online knowledge components, which is followed up by a clinical practicum, and finally a classroom-based session where the integration of knowledge and practice is facilitated by the course instructor. This approach helps learners to continue building their knowledge and skills throughout the course, and sets learners up for optimal success in their professional practice.

Both Acute Care and Critical Care programs have been developed in accordance with the Ministry of Training, Colleges and University’s Registered Nurse Critical Care Nursing Program Standard as well as Critical Care Services Ontario’s Standards for Critical Care Nursing in Ontario (2018).

CCNU110 Acute Care Nursing Certificate CCNU120 Critical Care Nursing Certificate Both courses are available only through sponsorship on a contract with hospitals.

MICHENER ENGLISH LANGUAGE ASSESMENT

T

he Michener English Language Assessment (MELA) is a standardized English language proficiency test specific to the health care sector. This test is referenced to the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB). MELA scores are used by some post-secondary institutions and regulatory bodies as approved and acceptable demonstration of communicative competence to study or practice in English.

MELA measures English language communication skills in four areas: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The test takes about three and a half hours.

Students have two options to register for MELA: LANG101 MELA Online

OR

LANG100 In-person at The Michener Institute

There are several testing sessions offered monthly. Applicants can choose to complete the assessment from the comfort of their homes or in-person at Michener (Toronto). Both sessions are offered in a proctored environment.

MELA is open to applications from all over Canada and if requested, MELA can also be offered in-person anywhere in Canada at an approved test site.

MELA scores are used both for admission to all Michener full-time, part-time and bridging programs, as a diagnostic tool by program consultants, and for licensure by some regulators across Canada.

If you are an administrator from a regulatory body, college or university, and are interested in how to use MELA at your organization or for more information and general inquiries, please visit our website at themela.com or email mela@michener.ca.
