Abstract

This article describes a dynamic collaboration between a Texas Community College Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) program and a local workforce board and state institution to implement an initiative to recruit and retain nursing faculty. Grant funds were the catalyst in the development of professional development workshops to train new nurse educators. ADN leaders should form alliances as an innovative strategy to diminish the interdependent nursing and nursing faculty shortages.
