CGEAN: a resource for nursing administration.

In the last decade, CGEAN has expanded its membership to include more nurse executives, nurse researchers, and international members. CGEAN is also responding to changes in healthcare administration as it becomes more evidence-based and in faculty roles, which are increasingly emphasizing external research funding as a role expectation. This year 's forum on research development held during the business meeting at the NARC conference yielded several new initiatives to support faculty development and student training in research. We invite readers to join with us to implement these new initiatives.
