Problem
Nurse educators serve in a multidimensional role and maintaining currency and competence within this role remains of paramount importance. This requires nurse educators, regardless of their setting to consistently focus on improving their knowledge and skills. This may be viewed as "quality improvement" in the nurse educator role. Discuss quality improvement within the nurse educator role. Consider how the method of "self-evaluation" improves learning outcomes in nursing education. What types of activities promote socialization into the nurse educator role and lead to quality improvement?
