Two major accreditation organizations have reaccredited Vanderbilt School of Nursing through 2031. The Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education reaccredited the school for its master of science in nursing, doctorate in nursing practice and post-master’s certificate programs and the Accreditation Commission for Midwifery Education Board of Review reaccredited VUSN’s MSN nurse-midwifery and post-master’s certificate programs.
Both prestigious accreditations come after extensive self-studies, rigorous review by a peer-review team of examiners and the commissions’ review. The 10-year accreditation approval is the maximum that can be awarded a nursing program.
Due to restrictions on travel and on-campus visits because of COVID-19, the examiners conducted VUSN’s site visits virtually.
