Our Wound Care Training Courses

Available wound care certification prep courses include Wound Care (WCC®), Diabetic Wound Care (DWC®), Ostomy Management Specialist (OMS®), and Certified Wound Care Market Specialist (CWCMS®). Onsite, online, live online, and recertification options are available. The onsite course gives you dedicated time away from work to really focus on your wound care training and interact with peers and the trainer directly. The online course presents the same great information but eliminates the need to take time off work. You'll have 180 days to complete the online course when and where it best fits your schedule. The live online course gives you an interactive experience with your trainer and other students in an online setting.

Once you complete your courses, the exam and certification is available through the National Alliance of Wound Care and Ostomy® (NAWCO) or the American Board of Wound Management (ABWM). NAWCO is accredited by the NCCA, ensuring that your certification meets modern standards of practice. The certifications are also magnet-recognized.

Course Options to Fit Your Learning Style

Not only is WCEI® wound care training designed to motivate, inspire and capture your attention, we offer both onsite and online courses and events to fit your learning and lifestyle needs. All are designed to teach and engage in meaningful ways, elevate your expertise and improve patient outcomes. Which one is right for you?

Onsite courses. These classroom-style options are live, in-person, and held in various locations throughout each year. With charismatic, certified instructors leading the way, you'll gain real-world, practical knowledge that can be taken back home and applied the minute you walk into your work facility.

Online courses.  Accessible on your own laptop or computer, online courses are convenient and self-paced - you get to learn and study whenever and wherever you want. Fully narrated (and never boring), they are replicas of our onsite courses, complete with questions and answers at the end of each module. Find out more about our Learning Management System under each online course description.

Seminars. Our motivational wound management seminars cover the latest breakthroughs and up-to-date standards of care, and are held in various locations throughout the year. Featuring energetic and certified presenters, these one-day opportunities pack a powerful punch - delivering need-to-know information that serves to inspire and educate with impact.

Webinars. Whether they're live or on-demand, webinars provide vital opportunities for healthcare professionals to stay up-to-date on the latest clinical standards and best practices. We call them our learn-it-today-use-it-tomorrow options that elevate your expertise and help you gain better skills (and continuing education contact hours).
