Program Accreditation
The Freed-Hardeman University Department of Nursing maintains professional association with the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN). The AACN document, Essentials of Baccalaureate Education for Professional Nursing Practice (2008), serves as the guide for curriculum development, design, and implementation.
The baccalaureate degree in nursing at Freed-Hardeman University is accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (http://www.aacn.nche.edu/ccne-accreditation).
The CCNE Board of Commissioners granted accreditation of the baccalaureate degree program in nursing with an effective date of February 10, 2014 for a period of 5-years, ending December 31, 2019. The Board determined that all four accreditation standards were met with no compliance concerns noted.
