MSN Learning Outcomes:

Education Concentration

Nurse leaders need knowledge and competencies to effectively

create work environments that promote professional and
collaborative nursing practices and ultimately achieve quality
patient care. Nurse educators must be prepared to face challenges

learning needs, changing student expectations, an explosion in
educational technology, and the complexity of the clinical
environment in which their students will practice.
