: One of the recommendations of the landmark Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health report was to increase the proportion of nurses with a bachelor of science in nursing or higher degree to 80% by 2020. In 2012, the American Organization of Nurse Executives was selected by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation as the National Program Office for a new initiative-the Academic Progression in Nursing (APIN) program-with the goal of identifying and developing the most promising strategies for creating a more highly educated nursing workforce. This article discusses the findings of APIN's four-year project.
具有里程碑意义的《护理的未来:引领变革,促进健康》报告提出的一项建议是,到2020年将拥有护理学理学学士学位或更高学位的护士比例提高到80%。2012年,美国护士行政管理人员组织被罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊基金会选为一个新倡议——护理学术进步(APIN)项目的国家项目办公室,其目标是确定和开发最有前景的策略,以打造一支受教育程度更高的护理队伍。本文讨论了APIN四年项目的研究结果。
