Council of Associate Degree Nursing in New York State, Inc.
The Council of Associate Degree Nursing in New York State, Inc. (CADN) is a voluntary, non-profit organization that has a leading role in addressing the issues of students, faculty, and administrators of associate degree nursing programs in New York State. The Council was established in the 1970s and membership is open to the deans and directors of all associate degree nursing programs in the state.
The goal of the organization is to provide a forum to address the educational, professional, and political issues that are of key importance to Nursing and that have specific relevance to undergraduate nursing education.
The CADN strongly supports the importance of continuing education for faculty members. Annually, the council plans a workshop for faculty whose schools are members of the council. Educational offerings are based on a needs assessment from the previous year’s workshop and focuses on a current trend or topic relevant to the education of associate degree nursing students. Fees are collected to provide for this workshop and are used in to plan for adequate space as well as meals and handouts for the workshop. When available, educational contact hours will be provided.
Council meetings are held twice per year. In addition to reports and discussion by membership, representatives of the New York State Department of Education and the New York State Nurses Association are invited to attend. They provide the membership with governmental, regulatory, and professional information in a timely fashion. These meeting with state representatives provide an opportunity for dialog and input from the associate degree programs.
