North
Carolina's Nursing Education Articulation Plan
North Carolina is implementing a statewide RN-to-BSN Articulation Plan to assure
that our state has the nursing resources it will require. This plan was devised
to help North Carolina Registered Nurses with an associate degree or diploma
earn a higher degree in nursing with the goal of creating a seamless state-wide
approach to make higher education more accessible to Registered Nurses.
The articulation plan directly addresses the wide variability in university and
nursing program requirements related to transfer credits and general education
courses, and recognizes that education should build on previous skills and
learning without duplication of past educational experiences.
The North Carolina Center for Nursing was awarded a two-year nursing
articulation grant by the Helene Fuld Health Trust 2001 Educational Mobility
Initiative. The vision for this plan is:
"To create a seamless articulation model for North
Carolina's nursing education programs such that registered nurses who desire to
further their education are assured that previous learning and work experiences
are valued and formally recognized."
