SEC Nursing Faculty Professional Development Consortium

Welcome! This site is a community hub for nursing faculty at the Southeastern Conference Nursing Schools. For several years, the SEC Nursing Deans have been meeting informally at national meetings.  However, when the Covid -19 pandemic hit the Southeastern US region in February 2020, the Deans organized monthly video meetings to collaborate on the management of our respective schools during this international crisis.  Over time, the Deans recognized the value of the collaboration with goals to expand and leverage the strengths and resources within the network.  At a retreat in 2021 at LSU School of Nursing the Deans developed strategic initiatives and launched plans for the SEC Nursing Faculty Development Consortium. First, a comprehensive faculty survey was conducted across all 12 schools in spring of 2021, and representative faculty from each school were identified. In fall of 2021, the designated faculty leads from each of the 12 schools formed a task group, and utilizing survey results, began designing learning opportunities for nursing faculty around topics of interest and issue.
