Education-practice partnerships: faculty practice as faculty development.
The importance of establishing service-education partnerships in nursing is well recognized.

We describe the continuing clinical education component of faculty practice, and discuss its place within a hypothetical, broader program. Faculty practice is conceptualized as one aspect of ongoing faculty development.
