A. Program Completion Rates:

The completion rate for the traditional BSN program (not including the ABSN option) is defined as the percent of traditional nursing majors who complete the program in four consecutive semesters of upper division coursework (on-time) beginning with the first semester of upper division (junior 1 semester) and ending with the semester they were supposed to complete the program (graduate).

C. Employment Rates

There continues to be ample job opportunities for BSN graduates in the state of Montana. The Career, Internship, and Students Services Office at MSU conducts an annual survey to determine employment rates; salary data for graduates for the last 5 years I shown here. The data below does not include ABSN graduates, but because they remain in touch with the faculty we do have anecdotal data from them as well. They have self-reported finding employment within 3 months of graduation.

D. MSU University Senior Survey Results for BSN graduates

The office of planning and analysis administered the MSU senior survey three times during AY 2014-2015. For all three survey administrations combined for the 2014-2015 AY, 2,346 invitations were sent out, with 711 (30.3%) responses.

After each initial invitation was sent out via listserv, two additional “reminder” e-mails were sent to those who had not yet responded. Those reminders were sent approximately a week to 10 days apart. The data in the table below is taken from the portion of the survey that is specific to the nursing major for 2014-2015 graduates. Going forward, MSU no longer surveys seniors specifically.

The College of nursing has created our own survey using these same questions, as an exit survey for our seniors. This survey will be sent to graduating students in November (December graduation), April (May graduation), and July (ABSN students completion). The contact information and verification of degree will be obtained from the degree candidates spread sheet provided by the registrar each semester. Using that as a guide for contact information, we are able to determine if the student is in the ABSN or Traditional program of study; we survey traditional and ABSN separately.

The UAAC committee reviewed these results in October, 2016. The mean age of nursing students completing this survey was 29 years; the mean GPA was 3.61; and the overall mean ranking for all of the subdivisions was 4.35 (Likert scale 1-5).The committee will be reporting the results as part of a general recommendation to the faculty about curricular changes. Mean scores falling below 3.5 indicate areas for consideration with regard to pedagogy and curriculum.

E. College of Nursing Alumni Survey Results

Alumni satisfaction is considered a measure of determining program effectiveness. It is measured by the undergraduate program through surveys that are administered to graduates within one to two years after they have graduated.

The undergraduate academic affairs committee (UAAC) developed the survey tool. E-mails were sent to the graduates, providing a link to the online survey. The survey provided Likert scale numerical values 1-4; 1=very satisfied, 2=satisfied, 3=dissatisfied, 4=very dissatisfied.

In June of 2016, the Alumni Survey was sent to Traditional and ABSN graduates from: May, 2014 and August, 2014 (ABSN). The response rate was 32.25% and an N of 41.

E. Recent Kaplan Diagnostic Exam Results

The test items in the Kaplan Diagnostic Exam cover the key concepts and major topics taught in our nursing curriculum. The tests assess the ability of students to use the components of the nursing process within major content and conceptual areas.

The tests strategically include questions of varying difficulty levels to assess students’ ability to apply the nursing process to client needs, problems, and frequently encountered situations.

Constructs, such as critical thinking and making nursing judgments, are essential themes embedded in all tests. The tests are designed to challenge basic nursing students and provide feedback regarding students’ ability to recall information, understand concepts, set priorities, and make nursing judgments.

To ensure the usefulness and effectiveness of the tests as evaluation tools, Kaplan Nursing conducts research studies to determine the reliability and validity of the tests.

Our program currently uses the Diagnostic A in the final semester of the senior year. Students are tested on 180 items and the Score threshold is 65% which equates to a 94/8% probability of passing the NCLEX-RN on the first time.

The Diagnostic exam provides students with individual scores in the following content areas:

• Level of Difficulty

• Client Needs

o Safe and Effective Care 26.7% o Health Promotion and Maintenance 12.8% o Psychosocial Integrity 8.3% o Physiological Integrity 52.2%

• Client Need Categories o Management of Care 16.7% o Safety and Infection Control 10% o Health Promotion and Maintenance 12.8% o Psychosocial Integrity 8.3% o Basic Care and Comfort 12.2% o Pharmacological/Parenteral Therapy 13.3% o Reduction of Risk Potential 13.9% o Physiological Adaptation

• The Nursing Process o Assessment 22.8% o Diagnose 9.4% o Planning 20.0% o Implementation 28.9% o Evaluation 18.9%

• Areas of Clinical Nursing (Demographic) o Adult Health 53.3% o Children’s Health 20.0% o Women’s Health 13.8%

The most recent individual campus scores for these content areas can be found in Appendix A. In addition, Kaplan provides students and educators with an explanation of the probability of passing the NCLEX. This probability analysis is supported by ongoing research, conducted by the vendor. Faculty in the senior level course where the exam is given, work with students scoring below 65% to develop a remediation plan and a plan for the NCLEX-RN success. The 65% score is based on the Diagnostic Score data, which indicates students with scores above 65% have a higher probability of passing the NCLEX (94% +). This table shows the average % of 180 questions that were answered correctly by cohort on each campus by semester. While this average would indicate the NCLEX pass rates for our program should be concerning, our students’ NCLEX pass rates are above the National Average.

When students score below 65% on the Kaplan Diagnostic A, S2 faculty in the course in which the class is given, coach them to remediate in areas of weakness, and to take an NCLEX review course. These interventions may well be positioning students to perform at a passing level on the NCLEX-RN to overcome deficits identified by the Diagnostic A exam. When faculty in the Leadership courses gather data on students’ intentions to engage in an NCLEX-RN review course, 95-100% of the students report they plan to engage in NCLEX-RN review courses.

Going forward, the faculty voted in May, 2016, to adopt integrated testing at J2-S2 levels. The College of Nursing has proceeded with an investigation of vendors through procurement and purchasing. One of the requirements of the vendor will be providing normed data, providing an NCLEX review course, and providing both students and faculty with ongoing tools/training for implementation of these tests.

The College of Nursing Process of evaluation of outcomes includes collating, summarizing and reviewing data annually by the Dean, UG Associate Dean, Campus Directors, and the Undergraduate Academic Affairs Committee (UAAC) to determine

what is learned from the data and how we should respond. Discussions about program outcomes occur in various meetings of all administrators (retreats), UAAC meetings (held monthly or retreats), Faculty meetings, and Campus Director meetings.

We consider what changes need to be made, if any. Our faculty were surveyed spring, 2016 with regard to their opinions about the UG curriculum. UAAC is analyzing those results now and will bring a recommendation to the General Faculty this AY (16-17) with regard to curricular changes.

Teresa Seright, PhD, RN Associate Dean for Undergraduate Programs MSU- College of Nursing
