2024 continued faculty members’ preparation for the AACN Essentials-driven curricular changes and competency-based education,

work that has been led by associate professor Sarah Craig (MSN ’10, PhD, ’14).

From a new Center for Teaching Excellence grant for classroom skills workshops and a new BSN to DNP pathway program redesign, to new RN to BSN informatic courses and cardinal assessments and a revised BSN health policy course, our curricular journeys continue.

A look at some of that work and the School's Essentials-driven journey, BY THE NUMBERS.
