Oregon's Nursing Workforce Diversity Initiative

ocnThe Nursing Student Admissions Database (NSAD) Project is one component of the Oregon Center for Nursing's Nursing Workforce Diversity Initiative. The aim of the NSAD Project is to begin annual collection of reliable data that describes the true number and selected demographic characteristics of applicants applying to Oregon's 21 Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) programs and Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) schools in order to accurately track and report admissions and enrollment trends.

In time, the NSAD Project's data may serve as the impetus for targeted outreach to increase diversity and cultural competence in Oregon's nursing workforce as well as provide nursing programs/schools and policy makers with valuable information about increasing nursing career pathways and ameliorating Oregon's nursing shortage.
