Fall Executive Development Series
AACN's Executive Development Series increases the knowledge and skills needed for successfull leadership in a school of nursing at a time of complex and accelerating change in health care and higher education.
The popular Executive Development Series (EDS) is offered every fall and spring and is designed for aspiring and experienced academic leaders who want to polish their executive-level skills, explore mutual challenges and share winning solutions in a collegial, interactive environment.
Note: The Fall Executive Development Series is offered in conjunction with the 2017 Baccalaureate Education Conference; the same program will precede the 2018 Spring Annual Meeting.
The Fall EDS is open to aspiring and experienced academic leaders but the Spring EDS is only open to the primary dean/director/chair of AACN schools of nursing.
