Guidelines and Policies
The QSEN project team will evaluate each submission in terms of its relevance to quality and safety education and its overall grammatical presentation. However, submissions will not meet traditional criteria for peer review.
By completing a submission, you are giving permission for the information to be made available on this website. You may place all relevant information in the submission, you may upload additional files, or you may provide an overview but require interested faculty to contact you for additional materials. Regardless of which approach you take, by your submission, you are giving permission to receive inquiries and requests for information.
Each strategy requires a separate submission form; however, you may submit an entire course syllabus or module, if desired.
If you wish to remove your submission from the website, please contact us.

Strategy Title
Choose any title of 12 words or less. You may want the title to reflect a specific competency, the type of strategy, or the target learner audience.

Quality and safety competencies are inter-related, so more than one competency may be checked, but it will be most helpful to readers if you represent the focus of your submission as narrowly as possible.
Learner/Participant Level
If you have used this strategy with a variety of learners, check all that apply. Otherwise, choose the one learner level with whom you worked when the strategy was developed, implemented or evaluated.
Learning/Participant Setting
Check all settings to which your strategy can be easily adapted.
Strategy Type
Choose the one descriptor that best identifies your submission.

You have up to 300 words to describe evaluation strategies related to student learning, student or faculty satisfaction or employee/administration with this strategy.

Thank You
There are undoubtedly hundreds of ways to help learners develop competencies in patient-centered care, teamwork and collaboration, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, safety, and informatics. Thank you for sharing your ideas and experiences with one or more teaching /practice strategies. Your generosity adds to the collective wisdom about ‘what works’ and enhances the possibility that all nurses will one day consider these competencies to be fundamental to what it means to be a respected nurse.
