About Us

The National Consortium for Nursing Academic Coaches (NCNAC) was started in 2021 to connect educators in nursing academia looking for help in supporting their nursing students through academic coaching or student success. The coaching role is broadly defined and includes nursing faculty or staff that help nursing students with topics such as studying skills, time management, test taking, or general life skills. Our consortium works to fill in gaps in support for nursing academic coaches, as well as to support one another through research and collaboration. NCNAC is currently composed of over 500 nursing educators from 48 states in the U.S.

​

To foster nursing education excellence, we dedicate ourselves to empowering students through personalized coaching, innovative teaching methods, and evidence-based practices. By creating a collaborative environment, we create opportunities for students to thrive, embrace lifelong learning, and achieve their full potential. Together, we advance the field of nursing education by promoting research, sharing best practices, and advocating for continuous improvement.
