Competency Mapping
Competency-Based Education to Boost Nurse Learner Confidence
Competency-mapped performance in simulations is incredibly important. Sentinel U’s virtual scenarios map directly to national healthcare standards in clinical competency areas and strengthen nurse learning to improve outcomes.
Competency-mapping allows for:
- Targeted Learning: Helps learners practice exactly what they need to know.
- Consistent Standards: Learners are held to the same high expectations, ensuring uniform quality in education and patient care.
- Accurate Assessment: Can clearly see where learners excel and where they need more support, leading to more effective feedback and improvement.
- Improved Education Programs: Makes education more relevant and effective.
- Enhanced Patient Care: When healthcare professionals practice and develop the right skills, patient outcomes improve.

Leveraging Virtual Clinicals in Competency-Based Education
Prioritization of Care®
In Prioritization of Care®, learners can view their performance against CJMM and NCLEX standards, as well as alignment with AACN Essentials. Facilitators can access both individual and aggregate learner performance data.
Patient Management and Delegation®
In Patient Management and Delegation®, learners can view their performance against CJMM and NCLEX standards, along with alignment to AACN Essentials. Facilitators can review individual and aggregate performance.
In Readiness Essentials (Coming Soon), learners have visibility into their mapping to CJMM and NCLEX standards, and how they align with AACN Essentials. Facilitators can review individual and aggregate performance.
Advanced Practice Series®
In the Advanced Practice Series®, learners can see their mapping to Core Behaviors and alignment with AACN Essentials and NONPF Core Competencies. Facilitators can review individual and aggregate performance.
For Readiness Essentials Advanced (Coming Soon), learners view their mapping to Core Behaviors and alignment with AACN Essentials and NONPF Core Competencies. Facilitators can review individual and aggregate performance data.
