Webinar discusses practice/academic partnerships during COVID
COVID-19 continues to cause significant disruption to the health care system and limits the availability of clinical experiences for nursing students. In response, the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN), in collaboration with other nursing organizations, developed the Practice/Academic Partnership model, an innovative approach to addressing both workforce and academic needs. Working with the American Journal of Nursing, the NCSBN prepared an on-demand webinar, which explains the benefits of the partnership model, describes its components and implementation processes, and contains guidance for evaluating partnerships established in response to the pandemic.
