Graduate nursing education programs' focus on preparation for academia results in many graduate nurses being unprepared to function as nursing professional development (NPD) practitioners in the practice environment. This article describes the development of an innovative collaborative partnership designation program and how a specialty organization, health system, and academia partnered to create an educational program to prepare NPD practitioners. The designation program provides a practical tool for use by NPD departments to advocate for the NPD specialty.
研究生护理教育项目侧重于为学术领域做准备，导致许多研究生护士没有做好在实践环境中担任护理专业发展（NPD）从业者的准备。本文描述了一个创新的合作伙伴指定项目的发展过程，以及一个专业组织、医疗系统和学术界如何合作创建一个教育项目，以培养NPD从业者。该指定项目为NPD部门提供了一个实用工具，用于宣传NPD专业。
