Results:
The help desk reports identify pronounce areas in which faculty frequently seek assistance. In addition, the reports disclose unique tendencies in nursing faculty to collaborate with peers for assistance.
Conclusions:
The trends identified within the records provide an evidence-based foundation for efforts to support effective faculty development interventions.
