Oregon’s Statewide Nursing Education
Program
• Initial cohort will include 18 - 24 qualified employee/students
• Two or three geographic “clusters” of hospitals/community colleges will be included
• Educational services will include a blend of distance learning, local college services and hospital learning sites.
![Page 15: N2K: Employer Sponsored Pathway to Health Careers Presented by The Oregon Health Career Center.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e6b5503460f94b693ba/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Important Advantages

• Doesn’t require a permanent commitment of limited college resources
![Page 16: N2K: Employer Sponsored Pathway to Health Careers Presented by The Oregon Health Career Center.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e6b5503460f94b693ba/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Minimizes Impact on College Resources
• all resources provided by participating colleges are negotiated in advance.
• project costs incurred by participating colleges are fully paid by the N2K program.

………and Unintended

Is This Model Replicable?
• Is there a need that’s difficult to fill?• Is there an atmosphere of trust and
collaboration between college and industry?
• Are all parties willing to participate proactively and openly?
• Are all parties willing to think outside the box, question assumptions, explore new ways to build and deliver educational programs?
