AACN is thrilled to continue offering Nursing Workforce Solutions, a team-based program sponsored by Johnson & Johnson that leverages AACN’s Clinical Scene Investigator (CSI) Academy to advance nurse satisfaction, retention and healthy work environments. CSI faculty will lead six cohorts of 10 teams through an experiential learning-based program provided at no cost to the teams.
