Developing a Curriculum to Educate Postgraduate Practitioners on Scholarly Projects

Abstract

Many hospitals across the country have postgraduate fellowship programs for nurse practitioners and physician assistants. An important aspect of these programs is a scholarly project focused on patient outcomes. However, many fellows lack the experience and skills necessary to complete a scholarly project. This article presents a scholarly project curriculum with relevant information for nurses in professional development as they equip learners with the knowledge, structure, and support necessary to produce high-quality scholarly work.
