The Novice Roadmap for the Infection Preventionist is an orientation guide and a pathway to earning your CIC. Listen to two of the Roadmap’s creators as they discuss the Do’s and Don’ts of how to engage with this valuable tool and how to get the most out of your journey through the infection prevention field.

Hosted by:

Marie Wilson, MS, RN, CIC and Jay Liggins, MS, CIC

The roadmap gave me a sense of direction and an idea of what it meant to find your way toward becoming an efficient and competent infection preventionist.
