The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) was established in 1969 to advance nursing education at the baccalaureate and graduate levels. It remains the only national organization dedicated exclusively toward meeting this goal. Representing schools of nursing at 547 universities and four-year colleges nationwide, AACN’s programming is focused on four key areas. These include establishing quality standards for bachelor’s- and graduate-degree nursing education; assisting deans and directors to implement those standards; influencing the nursing profession to improve health care; and promoting public support of baccalaureate and graduate education, research, and practice in nursing. This article highlights several of AACN’s notable firsts in its 30-year history, and reviews the association’s current programs in legislative and regulatory advocacy, curriculum standards, coalition building, accreditation, data collection, workforce development, and other areas.
