What is AACN LEADS?

To ensure that all AACN members have access to enrichment experiences tailored to their needs, AACN launched AACN LEADS. Designed to provide a variety of learning opportunities to all individuals along the leadership continuum, from novice faculty to seasoned administrator, AACN LEADS introduces a portfolio of programs for new, early career, and experienced deans, associate deans, program directors, and faculty. AACN uses the acronym LEADS to intentionally match specific levels of programming with the audiences served.
