Nurse-scholars have a significant obligation to their community as well. Their work must have academic and professional integrity. Their efforts are designed to add to the body of knowledge, advance the profession, and ultimately help in the care of patients. Work that lacks integrity is subject to erode quickly or worse.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, there are strategies and tools that can help ensure integrity in academic and professional work. This Assignment asks you to consider these tools and how you might apply them to your own work.<\/p>\n

Week 1 | Part 1: Developing an Academic and Professional Network<\/p>\n
I have identified and secured the participation of the following academic (at least two) and professional (at least two) individuals and\/or teams to form the basis of my network. This network will help me to clarify my vision for success and will help guide me now and in the future.<\/p>\n
Directions: Complete the information below for each member of your network. For more than four entries repeat the items below with details of your additional network member(s) in the \u2018ADDITIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS\u2019 section.<\/p>\n
NETWORK MEMBER 1<\/p>\n
Name: Dr. Carie Braun<\/p>\n
Title:Nurs 6002N-7 Instructor <\/p>\n
Organization:Walden University Faculty <\/p>\n
Academic or Professional: Professional<\/p>\n
Why I selected this individual and\/or team and how they will support my success in the MSN program and as a practicing nurse:<\/p>\n
Notes: Dr.Braun has been informative and offering valuable guidance, knowledge, and feedback thus far. From her previous experience, she can provide clarify concepts and additional resources and share insights that will be helpful through the program. Professional networking can help nurses achieve the fundamental knowledge required to take the next step (Schmidt, n.d). Her experience can offer guidance, mentorship, and practical advice. Her expertise and insights into challenges and opportunities can help me navigate my journey.<\/p>\n

Notes: Cooplyn and I both shared similar stories about our family members and the passion behind them. Fellow students collaborating with one another and sharing insight will be beneficial to us. Collaboration elevates our learning experience and fosters community. In other words, a connection maybe able to offer direct help or put you in contact with someone who can directly help you, but you maybe able to return the favor at some point (Schmidt, n.d).<\/p>\n
