 To enhance their leadership skills, NCIN scholars at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center participated in the College of NOBLE (Nursing Organization for Building Leadership) Ambassador Program. They also received mentoring from alumni of the accelerated BSN program and senior-year students, who helped them quickly connect to student services, activities, and programs which helped them succeed in the fast-paced program. Students met with their mentors as often as 10 times per semester.
