AACN Major Surveys
A. Annual Survey of Baccalaureate and Graduate Nursing Programs
This survey starts in early September and ends in late October each year. The survey collects data on enrollment, graduation, applications, and salaries of full-time faculty and deans. The data help schools in many ways, such as comparing their salary data with peer schools and knowing the number of schools offering or planning to offer CNL or DNP programs. The data also provide enrollment and graduation information for NP and CNS programs by specialty. Respondents receive a free copy of the annual data reports.
B. AACN Annual Financial Benchmarking Survey of Member Schools
This survey starts in October each year and remains open until the end of June of the following year. The survey collects financial data on revenues and expenditures which, in combination with student and faculty data collected in other AACN surveys, provide numerous benchmarking measures, free of charge, to participating schools that also complete the AACN Faculty and Doctoral Student Roster Survey.
C. Faculty and Doctoral Student Roster Survey
This survey starts in the summer each year (for schools that have completed the initial survey, an annual data update is needed.) This survey collects faculty (full-time) and doctoral student data at the individual level regarding demographics, education, and employment. The results will help schools understand issues affecting the nursing faculty shortage such as faculty recruitment, retention, and promotion. Participating schools can generate free reports on faculty distribution by rank, tenure, degree, race/ethnicity, or gender.
D. Annual Faculty Vacancy Survey of Member Schools
This survey starts and ends in July each year. The survey collects data on budgeted but unfilled full-time faculty positions by rank, tenure, and level of teaching.
