The annual Campus Technology Product of the Year program, now in its fifth year, recognizes outstanding product development achievements that are transforming the education technology landscape. The Engage Series received a Platinum award in the Adaptive/Personalized Learning Tool category, in recognition of its innovative approach to preparing new nurses.

An Engaging Interactive Environment That Brings Learning to Life

Engage generates powerful student engagement using multimodal resources that are unique within nursing education.

When nursing programs integrate this comprehensive learning environment, students learn and perform better across core curriculum areas, including clinical judgment. (Find out more about the valuable outcomes of Engage in this ATI Educator Blog article.)

The Engage Series delivers multimodal learning through interactive case studies, videos and podcasts that bring core nursing concepts to life. Another key feature in the Engage Series is Claire AI® the first student-facing AI assistant in nursing education. It provides personalized support to learn with confidence. And as with all ATI resources, Engage provides time-saving tools for educators, including prebuilt lesson plans, real-time analytics and 24/7 support.

The Engage Series: 7 Distinct Products, With More to Come

As of winter 2025, the Engage Series consists of Engage Community & Public Health, Engage Fundamentals, Engage Mental Health, Engage Adult Medical-Surgical, Engage Maternal, Newborn & Women’s Health, Engage Pediatrics, and Engage Pharmacology. In 2026, ATI Nursing Education will introduce Engage Nursing Concepts. Engage Pathophysiology is in development.

Ascend chief product officer Manar Alazma said the Engage Series is a perfect example of how the teams at Ascend Learning come together to create high-impact AI-infused products that make a difference for learners, educators and healthcare professionals in every community. ATI Nursing Education is an Ascend Learning brand.
