Institute for Educators in Nursing & Health Professions
The Institute for Educators in Nursing & Health Professions is addressing the critical and growing faculty shortage in nursing and health professions. The goal of the Institute is to prepare nurses and other health professionals with the essential knowledge and skills to assume teaching roles in Maryland, the surrounding region, and beyond.
The Institute identifies and coordinates existing resources and seeks new resources to provide courses and programs that will prepare nurses to assume educator roles in academic or clinical settings. The Institute offers:
- courses in the classroom or on-line learning enviornments to post-graduate students, including students currently enrolled in master's or doctoral programs in nursing or other health professions;
- a variety of single courses/modules for ongoing professional development or current faculty, clinical nurse educators, and educators for educators from other health professions; and
- itself as a resource for related initiatives.
