Filling the nurse faculty gap

February 1, 2021 by johnk

WCN workshop aims to support better representation among future nurse educators and address nurse faculty shortages.

To graduate the number of nurses needed to meet the demand, Washington state needs more nurse faculty.

In a story originally published in the Winter 2021 issue of The Washington Nurse magazine, Sofia Aragon, JD, BSN, RN, Executive Director, Washington Center for Nursing, examined how WCN is working to support better representation among future nurse educators and address nurse faculty shortages.

To increase interest in nursing educa­tion as a career, partic­u­larly among under­rep­re­sented students and practicing nurses, WCN created the ​“So You Want to be a Professor” workshop.

In 2019, WCN piloted its first three-day ​“So You Want to be a Professor” workshop. In 2020, with grant support from Premera Founda­tion, WCN offered the workshop again as a Zoom video confer­ence.

Learn learn more about the “So You Want to be a Professor” workshop read Ms. Aragon’s article on the Washington State Nurses Association website.
