Abstract

Academic, business, and government organizations are increasingly looking to distance education to meet workforce learning needs. This modality differs from classroom education, however, and simply transferring content from a traditional classroom to a distance learning application can result in poor outcomes. The Department of Veterans Affairs and the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences Graduate School of Nursing implemented a program preparing adult nurse practitioners solely through the medium of distance education, with no university "in-residence" requirement. Lessons learned from this success can prove useful to organizations that are planning distance education initiatives.
