About Our Past Event

Partners offering advanced practice nursing education, particularly for future nurse practitioners, are struggling to transition master’s-level nursing programs to award doctorates in response to educational associations’ declared goals. Unclear and as-yet-unenforced timelines have left many nursing program leaders wondering how to approach the transition and debating delaying launch of DNP programs. Low explicit employer demand for DNP graduates, and relatively small program sizes as measured by degree conferrals, further heighten concerns about DNP launch. EAB is providing this space to discuss concerns and questions among fellow nursing education leaders.
