Abstract
This article highlights a holistic approach to supporting academic progression for nurses in an online RN to BSN program. Academic progression for RN to BSN students is supported by an interprofessional team composed of an Outreach Coordinator, Admission Counselor, Academic Advisor and Faculty Director. The interprofessional model is a specific set of strategies used by one program to support the student from the initial point of contact with the College through successful completion of the BSN degree. An emphasis is placed on understanding the unique needs and goals of the students in the program which is designed for nurses who are currently working in a variety of practice settings. Specific team member responsibilities and collaborative strategies that are integrated across the student’s experience are discussed. Student feedback serves as a primary source for evaluating the program. A sampling of student feedback is included in the article that demonstrates a high level of satisfaction with the holistic approach including (a) the availability of their advisors (b) individualized degree planning, and (c) a supportive presence provided by their advisor during the program.
