American Association of Colleges of Nursing

So the U.S. followed a parallel but messier path, and I'm still trying to figure my way through it.

Associate degrees, so ADN and bachelor's BSN programs, both remain common entry points today with an ongoing debate led by groups like the American Association of College of Nurses about whether a BN should become the sole standard as the same debate as Canada had mostly settled on two decades ago.

So come on guys, what are you waiting for? Here's the thing that nobody frames honestly on either side of the border.

Professionalizing nursing education was a genuine win.
