Why the CCMNE Program Model Provides a Strategic Opportunity to Advance Education Providing direct access to BSN programs for ADN students ( early start or dual enrollment) increases # BSN nurses entering workforce - - - while reducing demand for future post licensure RN to BSN capacity Leveraging resources and enrollment capacity through shared partnerships between ADN and BSN (MSN) programs and regional coordination within collaboratives Aligning ethnic & socioeconomic diversity of BSN-MSN nursing workforce with communities served when sourcing students in existing ADN programs Reducing barriers to return to school through shared streamlined pathway less time, and lower cost to schools students, and employers

Achieving a More Highly Educated Workforce Challenges help to inform academic progression model(s) and strategies for action to effect meaningful progress Large ADN workforce (47% < BSN Degree or 173,763 nurses) 56% (6,164) of graduates entering workforce each year have AND as entry degree ADN nurses who decide to obtain a BSN degree take an average of 10.5 years to do so Limited capacity of post licensure RN to BSN programs in California to meet need/demand: (33 programs) Reduced or constrained academic capacities influenced by limited public funding
National Picture: 4 Emerging Models supporting Academic Progression (CCNA Education Transformation Learning Collaborative) Shared Statewide or Regional Curriculum (California CCMNE) Competency or Outcome-Based Curriculum (Oregon) Post Licensure BSN Degree Awarded from Community College (21 states with Bachelors, 9 include nursing) (SB 850 CA) Accelerated Options (CA and Other States) o ADN to MSN o ELM
The Future of Academic Progression for Nursing in California Goal is to double the number of students enrolled in a CCMNE program over the next couple years Grow our programs public, private, out-of-state partnerships Consider other successful models emerging on the national scene Provide every RN a pathway to pursue academic progression to a minimum of a baccalaureate level
