Academic-Practice Partnerships: Preparing the Health care Workforce
Through partnerships, Edson College has created unique & novel approaches to preparing the workforce of the future.The premise is “What are your workforce needs? How many nurses do you need? How many NPs does your care model require? How do you want to advance your research agenda?”This adaptive model allows us to take our academic programming to the workplace and expands the learning options across the health care continuum.
