"As one of the first books examining the core issues of
accelerated nursing education, this one offers valuable information
on the challenges and successes of this educational
model."--Doody's Medical Reviews
"Accelerated degree programs provide evidence that creativity in
nursing program design can facilitate learning experiences that
assure competence in the profession while also taking advantage of
the knowledge, skills, and experiences the learner brings to our
profession. Lessons learned from accelerated nursing programs can
be applied in all our programs and enrich the education of
professional nurses "
