Methods: Using a competency-based curriculum development process, the authors reviewed literature, interviewed focus groups, and evaluated validity using Delphi method. The curriculum was finalized through a public hearing and the steering committee of education in KAFNA. Results: The curriculum composed of 146 credits, seven educational objectives, seven core competencies, and eleven program outcomes. Item-level content validity index scores for educational objectives, core competencies and program outcome were 0.78 or higher. Conclusion: The curriculum was verified with high consensus. However, it should be updated on a regular basis to educate nursing cadets to become excellent nursing officers, and be revised to reflect the fourth-cycle nursing education accreditation standards.
