One College of Nursing in Illinois teamed up with the UIC School of Public Health to launch initiatives to attract more nursing students, under a three-year U.S. Department of Health and Human Services grant. The new programs include a mentoring program for paraprofessionals and a fast-track nursing degree program.
The associate degree nursing program at one Manchester, New Hampshire College received word that it has been re-accredited for eight years. The re-accreditation tagged behind an in-depth self study carried out by the program's faculty and administration, and a visitation by the board of accreditation for nursing. Eight years is the longest period for which accreditation is released by the commission.
