  3. % Survey Response Rate Over 5 Years

  4. Key Findings – ADN Only 8 reported for 2014 survey (35%)

  5. Key Findings - BSN

  6. Key Findings - MSN • MSN Enrollment Trends over 5 Years • Largest increases: • NP Track – 62% increase in applicants over 5 years • Leadership – 48% increase in applicants over 5 years

  7. Key Findings - Doctoral • DNP Programs • 25% ↑ in number of DNP programs • 76% ↑ in students enrolled in DNP programs • PhD Programs • Stable enrollment over 5 years

  8. Key Findings – Factors limiting Acceptance of Students • Limited Clinical Sites • #1 for ADN programs over past 5 years • #1 for BSN and MSN programs from 2010-2012 • Only 67% of reporting schools reported using simulation in lieu of clinical hours in 2014 • Limited Number of Qualified Students • #1 for BSN and MSN programs for 2013-2014 • For doctoral programs • Limited Number of Qualified Faculty • For MSN and doctoral programs over past 5 years

  9. Key Findings – Nursing Faculty • Distribution of Full-time Faculty by Age

  10. Key Findings – Nursing Faculty • Preparation • 14.6% of all faculty are PhD prepared • 30% of Full-time faculty are PhD prepared • Diversity • Race/Ethnicity • 85% White/Caucasian • 7.5% Black/African American • 2% Hispanic/Latino • 5% Asian • 1% Alaskan/American Indian • Gender • 93% Female

  11. Key Findings – Student Diversity • Race/Ethnicity of Students in BSN Programs over 5 years

  12. Key Findings – Student Diversity • Race/Ethnicity of Students in MSN and Doctoral Programs Doctoral MSN Clinical Track

  13. Key Findings – Student Diversity • Gender of Students in BSN Programs over past 5 Years

  14. Recommendations • Find a way to increase response rate • LPN programs are a conduit to RN programs: Encourage participation in survey • We have ↓ number of students being admitted and an ↑ number of “qualified applicants” being turned away from ADN and BSN programs. Areas for further examination include: • What are schools criteria for “qualified applicants”? • How are schools reporting number of students not admitted? • How is the lack of qualified faculty and/or resources impacting admission of qualified applicants?

  15. Recommendations • Monitor simulation use as a strategy to impact the factor of “limited clinical sites” in ADN and BSN programs • Change item in survey to reflect simulation use by program • Pilot the use of the Wisconsin Diversity Assessment Tool in schools of nursing to encourage diversity in race/ethnicity and gender • Further studies to examine the impact of faculty role and work environment to better understand the stagnation of enrollment in PhD programs and decreasing numbers of PhD prepared faculty

  16. Survey Response • Current survey reflects the National Minimum DataSet • Many questions asked in survey are not reported on in results • Survey fatigue • Need survey to be meaningful to deans and educators

  17. Survey Response • Faculty • Full-time; full-time adjunct; part-time adjunct • Age, gender, race/ethnicity, highest degree • Filled positions, vacant positions, retirements • Student • Programs (LPN, ADN, BSN, MSN, doctoral) • Number of seats; Qualified Applicants; Admitted Applicants; New Enrollees; Number Graduated • Race/ethnicity; gender; age • Factors preventing acceptance • New Questions • Simulation • Interprofessional Education Experiences
