Fifteen nursing programs in schools and in hospitals, have been chosen NLN Centers of Excellence, the National League for Nursing has announced. These programs will be formally recognized at the NLN’s 2016 Education Summit in Orlando, Florida, part of a special honors convocation that precedes the gala President’s Reception “Farewell to Summit 2016” on Friday evening, September 23.

Speaking about the project "I eagerly anticipate the occasion to publicly applaud the 2016 COE designees, celebrating their contributions to excellence in nursing education and highlighting the outstanding faculty, deans, and health care professionals who make achieving this coveted status possible,” said NLN president Anne R. Bavier, PhD, RN, FAAN, who is dean and professor at the College of Nursing and Health Innovation, University of Texas at Arlington. Added CEO Beverly Malone, PhD, RN, FAAN: “Centers of Excellence raise the bar for all nursing programs by serving as role models of visionary leadership and inclusive excellence that nurture the next generation of nurses.”
