    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Education
    • Higher Education
    • Workforce Development

    Background:

    • Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) in Southeastern Virginia faced barriers to advancing their education to the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) level.
    • Traditional admissions criteria and educational pathways may not fully accommodate the needs of adult learners and experienced nurses.
    • The Teagle Foundation provided funding to address these educational advancement challenges.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop, implement, and evaluate an innovative Individualized Educational Support Model.
    • To facilitate the progression of LPNs to the BSN degree.
    • To address the specific needs of adult learners in nursing education.

    Main Methods:

    • The Teagle Initiative developed a comprehensive model program for LPNs.

  • The model incorporated advanced placement options via various examinations (NLN Mobility, CLEP, ACT-PEP, challenge exams).
  • Support services included faculty/peer tutoring, academic/financial counseling, socialization opportunities, and monthly stipends.
  • Main Results:

    • The program offered alternative admissions criteria, accommodating LPNs who might not meet all standard Hampton University admissions requirements.
    • The model provided a structured pathway for LPNs to attain BSN degrees.
    • Support mechanisms were implemented to ease the transition and retention of adult nursing students.

    Conclusions:

    • The Individualized Educational Support Model successfully addressed barriers for LPNs seeking BSN degrees.
    • The program demonstrated the feasibility of innovative educational support for nursing workforce advancement.
    • This model provides a replicable framework for enhancing nursing education accessibility and completion rates.
