The specific goals are to: Develop and disseminate evidence of the effectiveness of innovations in achieving these ends; Foster replication of successful strategies in varied settings across the country; Assemble benchmark measures of key variables associated with the faculty shortage so that individual nursing schools can compare their status to national norms.
