The Open University & the RCN working together in partnership

The Open University and the Royal College of Nursing have joined forces to encourage greater participation in learning and development. Between us, we offer a wide range of courses and support in healthcare which could make a difference to your life, your career and the people you care for.

We can offer you flexible, work-based learning that fits around busy work and home commitments. We also offer the highest quality personally supported courses designed to have an impact on practice and patient care and an opportunity to learn while you earn to develop your career.

The RCN offers members a host of benefits, including access to the RCN Learning Zone (a web based resource that supports professional development), the RCN library and information services, career advice, a 10% discount on many OU courses, discounts on events, networking opportunities and online resources such as publications and research.
