• Pearls: Pearls™ is a program of evidence-based practice reflection exercises that facilitate the integration of new clinical knowledge into practice. If Self Learning content prompts you to formulate a specific question relevant to your practice, you can complete a Pearls exercise to find valid, reliable, and relevant answers to your clinical questions. It also prompts you to develop a plan for putting new information to work in your practice. Pearls exercises are eligible for six Mainpro+® certified credits and there is no limit to the number of exercises you may complete in a cycle.
