Nurse Educator Concentration
The nurse educator concentration is designed to prepare nurses to assume the advanced nursing role of educator in academic settings and healthcare organizations.
Evidence-based course content focuses on principles of the education process, assessment of learning styles, needs and characteristics of diverse learners, and appropriate, innovative, creative instructional techniques and strategies. Emphasis is on designing dynamic curricula and programs that are flexible and relevant in a challenging and changing environment.
Ethical, legal and leadership dimensions of the nurse educator role are critically analyzed. The experiential component provides the opportunity to integrate knowledge and experience. Ultimately, these nurse educators become exemplars of excellence, engaging with intention, acting with justice and serving with compassion.
