description INTRODUCTION: Health care providers in rural areas are often unable to attend continuing education trainings due to limited staffing coverage. The coronavirus pandemic has created a unique situation, requiring many health care providers to obtain continuing education through virtual offerings.

RESULTS: The study sample included nurse practitioner (NP) students and practicing NPs. All participants met competency in the skills validation. DISCUSSION: The results indicate that continuing education and competency validation of procedures is feasible in a virtual format.
