The success of the NCIN program at Nebraska Methodist College may be best reflected by the impressive nurse leaders the school has produced. Former NCIN scholars mentor new cohorts of accelerated nursing students. These former scholars have also met with executive nurse leaders from Methodist Hospital for further guidance about their careers. One scholar recognized the need for an alumni network for all NCIN scholars, and his vision and leadership were instrumental in the creation of the thriving NCIN Scholars Network, created in 2012. All NCIN scholars can join, and Network leaders have participated in several NCIN annual summits. The Scholars Network will soon become an independent association. At present, two scholars from Nebraska Methodist serve on its steering committee.
