• Developed an ongoing process and tool to evaluate concept-based curricula

Nursing education has heeded the calls of health experts, revising nursing curricula to move from a content focus to a conceptual model that emphasizes the learning process and evidence-based pedagogy.

Benefits and drawbacks of the process and tool are shared.
