Event Details


This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree, a transformative milestone in nursing education. Since the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) endorsed the DNP degree in 2004, over 73,000 nurses have earned this prestigious credential, becoming leaders in clinical practice, healthcare innovation, policy, and education.


We recognize the profound impact these nurses have made in advancing patient care, addressing health disparities, and shaping the future of the nursing profession. This anniversary is a testament to the dedication, expertise, and leadership of DNP-prepared nurses across the nation.


What a great way to end National DNP Week (October 19th-25th) with celebrating 20 years of the DNP degree with a Virtual Happy Hour.


Cheers to 20 years!
