  3. History of Baccalaureate Education in CC Systems 1998: CC systems began to grant baccalaureate degrees in response to: • increased demand by nontraditional students who are time- and place-bound; • increased labor market demand in specialized fields (e.g., health care and education); • increased demands in specific geographic areas; • demands for new kinds of baccalaureate degrees in applied and technical fields; • overcrowding on many four-year campuses, with demands exceeding capacity; and • limited higher education resources and pressures to reduce costs.

  4. Community College Baccalaureate Assoc. • Formed in 1999: • to promote the development and acceptance of the community college baccalaureate degree as a means of addressing the national problems of student access, demand, and cost. • Mission statement: • to promote better access to the baccalaureate degree on community college campuses. • to serve as a resource for information on various models for accomplishing this purpose. • Website: www.accbd.org • 2011: 16 states offer BA degrees in CC system

Nursing Practice Changes • 2008: American Assoc. of Colleges of Nursing (AACN): • Recommended offering baccalaureate nursing degrees in the CC systems. • 2010 IOM Report: • Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes a seamless academic progression from associate nursing degree to the doctorate. • Recommends more master and doctoral prepared nurses to meet the nursing demands as the health care system transitions to a preventive model. • 2010 Carnegie Report: • Recommends increase in the number of Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) programs. • 2010: All national nursing associations support the need for more BSN graduates.

  8. Nursing Education Changes • Need for more baccalaureate nursing programs • 2010 BRN school report: 138 RN programs • BSN 37 (CSU/UC = 19, Private = 18) • ELM 16 (CSU\UC = 9, Private = 6) • Enrolled: BSN: 10,242 ELM: 1,466 27.6% • Total BSN graduates/year: 3,157 +665 = 3,822 • ADN programs: (77 programs) graduates/year =6,707 71.4% • LVN to RN programs: (8 programs) graduates/year = 983 1% • Total RN graduates: 11,512 • Need more MSN and Doctoral prepared RNs • NPs, Clinical Nurse Specialists, Nurse Midwives, nurse anesthetists • Nursing faculty and in-service nurse educators • Required MSN prepared nurse educators for all nursing programs • Require Doctoral degree for university nursing programs • 197 faculty vacancies 2010
