The Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education

The 樱花传媒 Essentials

Used to define quality in nursing education, the 樱花传媒 Essentials outline the necessary curriculum content and expected competencies of graduates from baccalaureate, master’s, and Doctor of Nursing Practice programs. With the endorsement of the new 樱花传媒 Essentials by the membership in April 2021, academic nursing is moving toward a new model and framework for nursing education using a competency-based approach.  樱花传媒 is committed to providing resources, education, and facilitate this transformation.
