This
program is designed to develop and enhance leadership

and graduate nursing programs. The year long program provides
participants with a focused assessment experience, a range
of content and case studies related to successful leadership,
and the opportunity to establish networks with mentors

Meet the Leadership
Fellows
Fellows are selected to participate in this program through
a competitive application process. Each year since 2002, a
cohort of 55-60 Fellows has engaged in professional development
activities, including an assessment of current leadership
style and skills, mentoring opportunities with an experienced
dean, and work to accomplish identified goals. Representing
a variety of backgrounds, experiences, and skills, the AACN
Fellows have developed the necessary tools to be leaders in
the academic nursing world.
