The course teaches legal concepts related to the health care industry, as well as the role a legal nurse consultant might play in such litigation areas as the following: medical malpractice, toxic torts, products liability, personal injury, emotional distress, wrongful death, mental capacity, criminal law, and workers' compensation. Legal Nurse Consultant Certified (LNCC) is a discretionary test separate from this training course that experienced registered nurses graduating from this course may decide to sit for. LNCC test eligibility requirements are discussed during this training course; however, RNs and PAs graduating from this course need not take the LNCC in order to practice as legal nurse consultants.

The Legal Nurse Consultant Training Course is offered in partnership by the University of Georgia Center for Continuing Education and CLS by BARBRI.
