DRAFT 2
2013 NLNAC Standards and Criteria

Draft 2 of the 2013 NLNAC Standards and Criteria is ready for your review. Thank you for the many substantive and thoughtful comments received in response to Draft 1. The Committee for Accreditation Standards and Criteria met as have all six of the Subcommittees representing each program type (Doctoral, Master's, Baccalaureate, Associate, Diploma, and Practical). Each Subcommittee discussed the feedback, comments, and recommendations received during the open comment period, and revisions and edits have been made in Draft 2 as a result of your input.

Once again, please take this opportunity to carefully review Draft 2 and submit your comments. We also welcome any recommendations for wording that you think would add clarity or more accurately convey the intent of the Criterion.

The Committee on Accreditation Standards and Criteria will again carefully review the feedback and thoughtfully evaluate all comments received. Following the Board of Commissioners' approval, the 2013 Standards and Criteria will be available for use starting January 1, 2013.

We thank you for your active participation in this process.

Marilyn Smidt, MSN, RN
