Abstract
The new AACN Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education create an opportunity to nursing education to transform the educational preparation of our workforce with new standards for all member schools to implement into their academic programs as we prepare the future nursing workforce. With the advent of these updated academic standards, many nursing schools across the nation are reviewing program outcomes and transitioning from concepts to competencies. The purpose of the article is to describe the early phases of a quality improvement initiative to implement the new AACN Essentials within the undergraduate curriculum of a large school of nursing spanning multiple campuses. The article conveys lessons learned to help support and guide other schools of nursing.
