The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) launched the Nurse Transition to Practice Model (NTIP) in 2010 to address the growing need for highly skilled nurses in the United States. AACN NTI 2025 is a revised and updated version of the original NTIP, designed to prepare nurses for the challenges of the 21st-century healthcare system.
AACN NTI 2025 focuses on developing nurses who are practice-ready, patient-centered, and able to work effectively in interprofessional teams. It emphasizes the importance of evidence-based practice, quality improvement, and lifelong learning. AACN NTI 2025 has been widely adopted by nursing schools and healthcare organizations across the country and has been shown to improve nurse retention and patient outcomes.
