Acorn vs. HealthStream Jane

Acorn is the skills and development platform that closes the gap between what your people need to be able to do, what they can do today, and what is working to close it. Every role gets a standard, drawn from a framework of thousands of capabilities and proficiency levels. Your people capture the work they do against that standard, and the assessment is the checkpoint where a manager confirms what that work demonstrates. Development plans turn the gaps into action, and learning builds the skill.

When it comes to learning, one size doesn't fit all. Jane® ensures your nurses’ time spent learning is purposeful, and your educator’s time spent is meaningful by providing unbiased, personalized competency development based on each nurse’s unique knowledge and ability. Jane empowers leaders to Assess, Develop, Report, and is designed to identify potential preceptors and areas of risk, quickly and without bias. Jane’s valid and reliable knowledge assessments include 5,000+ specialty & population-based questions aligned to 8 competency groupings.
