The 2021 AACN Essentials consists of 10 domains articulated by competencies and sub-competencies for each domain, creating a scaffold for curriculum development. This presentation will discuss step by step processes that can be taken to move faculty colleagues toward a competency-based curriculum aligned with the 2021 Essentials. Approaches for conducting an effective and useful curriculum mapping will be demonstrated. Strategies to engage colleagues in the innovative work of developing and growing competency-based teaching activities and assessments will be discussed. Examples for application of the sub-competencies appropriate to prelicensure, RN-BSN, and graduate education will be shared along with ideas to operationalize this new alignment on a small and large scale.
