Abstract
The nurse educator shortage directly affects the nursing shortage. To adequately prepare future nurses, academia needs to retain qualified nurse educators. Many factors affect the nurse educator shortage, including retirement and competition for qualified nursing educators with clinics and the private sector, as well as dissatisfaction with the multiple stressors and expectations in the academic setting. Academia should implement supportive strategies to aid in the retention of nurse educators.
