Halstead, PhD, RN, ANEF, FAAN, Editor</I> <BR /><BR />Thirteen years after initial publication, the <I>NLN Core Competencies for Nursing Educators</I> continue to guide the development of graduate nursing programs, define the roles and responsibilities of nurse educators, and provide a framework for ongoing research in identifying the knowledge, skills, and attitudes essential to preparing a qualified nursing workforce.<BR /><BR /> <I>NLN Core Competencies for Nurse Educators: A Decade of Influence</I> revisits these critical guidelines through a contemporary lens that underscores their ongoing influence and offers valuable insight into how they will help shape the evolution of the nurse educator role. Whether you’re a practicing nurse educator or pursuing a career in nursing education, you’ll gain a better understanding of the theoretical foundation behind this landmark literature and learn how to best use it to successfully navigate the complex role of today’s nursing faculty.<BR /><BR />“Nurse educators, grounded by the current evidence about the role of the nurse educator, will ensure that the next generation of students is prepared to provide interdisciplinary, patient-focused, safe, and high-quality care.”<BR /><BR /> <I>Diane M.
