The MS in nursing education program content and outcomes are guided by multiple sources of knowledge including theory, evidence,
and professional nursing standards and guidelines (PSNGs). Professional nursing standards provide expectations for advanced
professional nursing roles and practice. Throughout the graduate program you will engage in learning activities that will enable you to
acquire and meet these standards; these activities will be documented in a final assignment at the culmination of the graduate program
to show linkage to the PSNGs. This learning exercise provides an opportunity to reflect on how a variety of learning activities helped
you to meet the PSNGs and the graduate program outcomes. The table will be submitted during the final graduate practicum course
(NURS 605), and is posted in each course as a reminder and to provide you with an opportunity to document how you met various
standards in that course, as you complete each course. Save the table and add to it each time you complete a course!
Provide an understanding of the integration of professional nursing standards into advanced professional nursing practice.
Enable reflection of achievement of each professional nursing standard as evidenced by learning activities completed during
the graduate program.
Assess how the SUNY Delhi graduate nursing education program outcomes have been met through the learning activities
completed during the graduate program.
There are nine essentials of graduate nursing education that identify the core expectations, skills, and competencies for master’s
program graduates, across the continuum of care in a variety of settings. Within each essential element there are between 5-15
expected outcomes for master’s level graduates in nursing. Refer to these outcomes as you identify how you met each essential, and
include those met in the assignment table below.
Complete the following table as you progress through the MS program, when you have completed an assignment that meets one or
more of the standards. This table will be submitted as an assignment in NURS 605: Graduate Practicum II. Complete Columns 2, 3,
and 4 in the table below.
In Columns 2 and 3, identify at least one Essential (including outcomes) and/or Core Competency with associated outcomes (at least
one outcomes per standard), and then an example of an assignment or learning activity that met this standard. Identify the assignment,
describe the assignment focus and outcome in 50-75 words, followed by a brief statement as to how this met the standard.
In Column 4, identify the number(s) of the Graduate Program Student Learning Outcome (listed above) that links to these course
activities. All of the MSN Essentials, Core Competencies, and Program Outcomes should be represented in the table.
