They are usually deal with huge number of information that obtained from the patients which need to be secured and safe and to achieve this they have to be trained in a proper way . So, to reach this goal a project called NICE– Nursing Informatics and Computer aided Education was established at the end of the 1990 's in which information technology (IT) and information security (IS) can be addressed and taught. The project partners came from Austria, France, Greece, Italy, and Slovenia. The team members were
