“These results reflect the great work happening every day at our School,” said Professor Anita Gagnon, Associate Dean and Director, Ingram School of Nursing.
McGill University’s Ingram School of Nursing (ISoN) is pleased to announce that the Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing (CASN) has renewed the accreditation of our undergraduate programs for a period of seven (7) years. Specifically, accreditation was granted to the following undergraduate programs: Ingram School of Nursing Educational Unit, Bachelor of Science in Nursing – 3-year path, Bachelor of Science in Nursing – 4-year path, Bachelor of Science in Nursing Integrated (BNI – on campus and online).
The decision was rendered by the CASN’s Accreditation Bureau (CAB) following an accreditation review of the School’s BScN and BNI programs that included a virtual site visit the week of March 18th. The CAB lauded the School’s commitment to excellence in nursing education as well as its continued efforts to sustain, maintain and improve its programs.
As noted by Professor Anita Gagnon, Associate Dean of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS) and Director of the Ingram School of Nursing, “These results reflect the great work happening every day at our School. We are fortunate to rely on a team of exceptional educators who are committed to furthering the legacy of McGill as a place of excellence in nursing education, research and innovation.”
Dr. Lesley K. Fellows, Vice President of Health Affairs and FMHS Dean, congratulated Professor Gagnon and the ISoN team for these impressive results. “Characteristically, ISoN’s undergraduate programs were again recognized for their quality and many strengths. This is a testament to the high standards members of ISoN set for themselves–faculty, staff and students alike.”
