Increase the Capacity of Existing Nursing Education Programs

Engage the leadership of Connecticut’s Schools and Programs of Nursing to assess existing student capacity at all education levels, determine nursing faculty needs to educate the current student populations, and partner with healthcare providers to ensure that clinical placement opportunities exist to maintain student retention and graduation rates. Utilize the statewide workforce findings to strategically expand education pipelines for nurses that are aligned with occupations and roles that are identified as in “high” demand in Connecticut.
