Nursing

With over 200+ nursing programs using our solutions, Exxat is the go-to education management partner for Nursing programs from pre-licensure to graduate tracks.

As the nursing profession has moved towards a competency-based education module with the new AACN Essentials, Exxat has evolved to become a leading solution for curriculum mapping and competency tracking.

Beyond streamlining data collection and reporting for CCNE, ACEN, COA, and ACNM accreditation, Exxat brings together the remaining aspects of nurse education management into one single platform. Programs no longer need to have separate solutions for affiliation agreements, preceptor qualifications, student compliance documents, clinical placement scheduling, and learning activities.

Imagine how easy it would be if all of your data connected together in easy-to-understand dashboards and reports. Imagine Exxat.

360° Nursing Program Management

From curricular mapping to student information and everything in between, Exxat allows you to streamline, store, track and report it all while automating many day-to-day processes.

Curriculum Mapping
- Easily map course objectives and outcome measures to AACN Essentials, CCNE, ACEN, COA, ACNM, Blooms Taxonomy, program-specific standards, or anything else! Use your maps to identify gaps, misalignments, or redundancies in your curriculum, preparing you for your next accreditation self-study or curriculum committee meeting.
Clinical Site Management
- Store all your site information in Exxat to see, at a glance, who can accept a student and when, which contracts are about to expire, where your clinical relationships are across the country. Conduct and log your site visits, know associated preceptors, keep track of site requirements, keep notes and much more.
Site Availability
- Make site availability requests easier with automated request emails that allow sites to enter their availability directly into your system by simply clicking a link sent directly to them. No spreadsheets, no scrolling through hundreds of emails to gather the responses.
Powerful Reports
- With reports on student performance, placement details, preceptors – many specifically designed to pull raw data speaking to accreditation standards – Exxat has you covered!
Student Profiles
- Capture student demographics and details as well as experience and credentials in a professional, online profile that is easily shared with clinical sites.
Student Preferences
- Share the list of available slots with students and provide them with the tools to research and make informed decisions about their preferences from any web-enabled device. Collect their preferences directly through the system where you can analyze them and use them to make the perfect match between student and site.
“My-Request”
- Let students search through affiliated sites or find new sites and preceptors to submit to the program. Students can upload their resume and other support documents and, after program approval, be placed at the practicum site with a single click.

“Placement Assist”
- Set your own parameters and maximize student preferences by letting Exxat do the work of making the match. Using a computerized algorithm, we make the most statistically advantageous matches for you and allow you to make any needed tweaks or changes before the placements go live.
Required Health Documents
- Securely store and track all student required health documents such as immunization records, physical exams, background checks, drug screenings, and more. Save time by allowing the Exxat team of health professionals review these documents to ensure that they meet your program-specific standards and communicate with the students if they don’t!
Preceptor Management
- Maintain preceptor profiles and stay up to date with board certifications and licensure that may be expiring.
Patient Logging
- Patient logs capture every aspect of a patient encounter including demographic information, visit attributes, CPT and ICD-10 codes, procedures, competencies, and more. You and your students can quickly pull powerful reports to show exposure and competencies gained across rotations.
Timesheets
- Use timesheets to track student hours and how those hours are spent: patient encounters, experiential learning, or simulations and what essentials were associated. Choose to have your students submit to you directly or get their supervisor’s sign off first.
Evaluations and Forms
- Nursing industry specific evaluations and forms come standard with Exxat and those that are unique to your program can be built out specifically for you. Preceptors and site coordinators complete these forms by clicking a unique link in an auto-generated email. No need to remember a login or password and no more paper required!
Saying Thank You
- Thank your preceptors with customized email messages and CEU certificates sent with the click of a button at the end of a rotation.
