Dear NSO member,

As many of you know, RNAO has been interested in how nursing education has been impacted by COVID-19 and in particular the clinical component of their education and any program interruptions that may have delayed progression, graduation and/or registration examination writing. We are interested in hearing from students, learning about program issues from schools of nursing and placement issues from partner health-care organizations. One of the ways we would like to obtain your input is through the Nursing Education and COVID-19 Student Survey.
