A rewarding career with real-world implications
As a nurse educator, you have the privilege of teaching students about all areas of nursing, helping them discover their passion. Where do they want to go and grow?
Help students cement opportunities by facilitating internships, identifying mentors and exploring the profession in other creative ways.
Strengthen your commitment and sense of purpose with a career full of professional and personal growth.
Teaching students and advancing the profession improves the health of our communities and our neighbors.
It is not about being a “sage on the stage,” it is about being a “guide on the side.” It is an understanding and respect that while learners may not always do the right thing, they always bring a valuable perspective to the learning experience.

To teach is to reach – one of the most exciting things about being a nurse educator is that instead of reaching a limited number of human lives as a nurse, you will be reaching thousands upon thousands of lives by teaching students to be nurses.

With a field as broad as nursing, there will always be a place for a new nurse learner who is capable of caring for the welfare of others and committing themselves to the art of healing.

It is about meeting learners where they are to engage in conversations that are meaningful to the students learning.
Throughout my journey of becoming an educator, I have learned many valuable lessons that will allow me to succeed. One of these things is how important it is to meet students where they are.
Mentoring is close to my heart as I believe that setting an example by our words and actions identifies a role model for future nurses to emulate.
I truly am proud to be a nurse, to advocate for all patients and to play a part in improving the care of future patients.
I have always liked people and science. The nurses I have worked with in my personal life have always made a high stress situation into a positive experience. I wanted to be able to have that ability for my community.
