| Nursing for Registered Nurses Program Description |
| The Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE), which is the autonomous accrediting arm of the AACN and is the program accreditation agency for the Nursing for Registered Nurses Program at UMGC, requires that CCNE accredited program incorporate the AACN Essentials into their curriculums. The Nursing for Registered Nurses program must undergo a major revision to align its curriculum with the new <br>Essentials standard. As a result, students will employ authentic, project-based assessments that are relevant to tasks that graduates will perform on the job; such projects serve as both the means of instruction and assessment of learning in the <br>program. |
