British Columbia Nursing Leadership Institute: program evaluation report

This report covers the BC Nursing Leadership Institute (BC NLI) operational time period from March 2005 through June 2010. Over this period of time, 14 cohorts (35-40 participants per cohort) participated in BC NLI activities. Total attendance was 451 first-line nurse leaders representing every health sector (e.g., acute care, community, mental health) and every health authority within the province. This evaluative report is based upon the four major components of the BC NLI: a) a 4-day residential workshop, b) mentoring supports at practice sites, c) year-long leadership projects at practice sites, and d) an online knowledge network with a discussion forum, resources, and a facilitator or knowledge broker (KB).Applied Science, Faculty ofNursing, School ofUnreviewedFacult
