NURS 6003 Week 1: Academic Success and Professional Development Plan Part 1: Developing an Academic and Professional Network

When was the last time you read Several Steps in my Sickness—Meditation XVII and Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions?

You might not be too familiar with this poem by author John Donne unless you are a specialist in 17th-century poetry. One of its well-known sayings is “No man is an island,” which you may know much better.

You have a fantastic opportunity to network with academics and professionals who can make sure you don’t travel alone when you set out on your path to accomplishing your academic and professional goals. Through this network, you may better define your own definition of success and get guidance both now and in the future. No one is an island, to quote Donne.

By deciding the academic and professional resources and connections you need to work with in order to succeed in your MSN program and as a practicing nurse, you can start building an academic and professional network.
