Long text (Legacy Book):
The NCIN program helped the school of nursing refine its accelerated MSN program (AMNP). The school made the Pre-Entry Immersion Program (PIP) available to all students in the AMNP program to introduce them to the accelerated learning process and help them with time management skills, study skill development, professional socialization, and transitions to nurse leadership. The faculty provided shadowing opportunities for AMNP students in their clinical specialty areas so they would be exposed to a variety of advanced practices. NCIN also helped the school improve its recruitment and retention of underrepresented minority and disadvantaged students.
