We are proud to offer our DNP program to students interested in advancing their clinical practice, scholarship, and leadership skills. Our DNP program is a practice-focused doctoral program designed to prepare health systems/organizational nursing leaders (non-APRNs) and advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) to lead innovation in nursing practice and healthcare.  \nThe Post-Master’s DNP program educates nurses prepared in advanced practice nursing roles ( NP, CRNA, CNL, CNM, and CNS) or health systems/organizational leadership in clinical inquiry, scholarship, policy, and innovation in health care. The post-baccalaureate Nurse Anesthesia Across the Lifespan DNP provides students both the theory and clinical practice required to meet the educational requirements to take the national certifying examination upon graduation. The DNP  \ndegree prepares graduates of both concentrations to analyze systems of care and provide transformational leadership to improve patient safety, quality of care, and implement evidence-based, person-centered healthcare practices.  \nTranslation of research findings into evidence-based practice is emphasized throughout the program, and broad goals of the program include the ability to interpret, analyze, and apply research findings to clinical and systems/population level practice settings, determine and measure system and population outcomes, manage information systems, and use appropriate technology for health and risk management and communication.  \nWe are committed to preparing competent and compassionate healthcare professionals who will achieve the DNP as their terminal degree in nursing for clinical practice. This handbook serves as a guide to the DNP program; it ensures clarity regarding the curriculum requirements and progression criteria for the DNP program. It is our hope that you will find the handbook helpful as you progress through the program.  \nOn behalf of the faculty, staff, and administration, we wish you much success as you pursue your doctoral education with us through the DNP Program at UNC Charlotte. Our goal is for you to experience a supportive, innovative, and rich learning environment as you complete your degree and educational journey  \nFor general DNP program information, please contact:  \nDr. Katherine Shue-McGuffin, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, CHSE UNC Charlotte Doctor of Nursing Practice Program Coordinator Clin","cbCaim4Oc0LUA9YY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaim4Oc0LUA9YY","pdf",761107,22,"English","# Welcome to the Doctor of Nursing Practice Program\n## General Information\n## Program Outcomes\n## DNP Core Competencies\n## DNP Program Overview\n## Curriculum Plan\n# Student Requirements and Progression\n## Student Enrollment Status\n## Student Advisement\n## Clinical Residency Requirement & Scholarly Project Development Process\n## DNP Scholarly Project Advisory Committee\n## Steps and Timeline for Project Completion and Work with Committee\n## Multiple Author Policy\n## IRB Approval\n## Degree Completion and Graduation\n## Use of Degree Credentials\n## Time Limits for Degree Completion\n## Amount of Transfer Credit Accepted\n## Financial Aid\n## Grades Required\n## Grading and Appeal Policies\n## Student Complaints\n## Office of Civil Rights and Title IX\n## DNP Program Instructional Technology Requirements\n## Clinical and Health Requirements","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the DNP program and who is it designed to prepare?\",\"answer\":\"The program is practice-focused and designed to prepare health systems/organizational nursing leaders and advanced practice registered nurses to lead innovation in nursing practice and healthcare.
