Tips for Successful Proposals for NLN Nursing Education Research Grant Applications

Audio/Web Seminar
January 7, 2010
4:00 - 5:30pm Eastern Time
Marilyn D. Frenn, PhD, RN, CNE & Barbara J. Patterson, PhD, RN

CONTENT
This webinar will define the characteristics of a successful NLN research grant proposal. Drawn from the NLN's Nursing Education Research Advisory Council (NERAC), the presenters will guide you through the process of addressing significant educational problems supported by NLN Research Priorities and determine usefulness in building the science of nursing education. Participants will be provided tips for developing their good idea, building a well-designed study, and producing a quality application toward securing one of the highly competitive NLN Research Grants.

Here are a few steps to success:
Now that you're back home charged up from this year’s NLN Education Summit, begin working on your application.

By January 2010:

  • Complete a review of the materials posted on the NLN website (www.nln.org) under Nursing Education Research.
  • Think through your research idea.
  • Plan your research design.
  • Begin writing your application.

FORMAT 
To participate in an audio/web conference, you only need a telephone with a speaker, and a computer connected to the Internet. You will hear our speaker over the telephone, while you view PowerPoint slides on our website. Following the presentation, there will be plenty of time for questions and answers.

REGISTRATION
You may have as many faculty as you wish in a conference room, listening to the audio and viewing the slides (which can be projected onto a large screen). During the presentation, pushing a few keys on the telephone will connect you to the operator, who will tell you when the line is free to ask the speaker a question.

Your registration entitles you to one connection only. If your school is logged onto the web server more than once, your first connection will be terminated.

Registration is limited to 100 connections. Register early! If we exceed 100 registrations, we will request that the speaker offer the conference again at a later date.

We heard your budget concerns and know that the critical shortage of faculty makes it difficult to take the time to travel to professional development events. To address these needs, NLN is instituting this new format and will offer several audio/web conferences on selected topics on a regular basis. Please let me know which topics are of most interest to you.

This workshop addresses the following Core Competencies for Nurse Educators©.
