title: Administrative fellowship. A bridge to success.
abstract: The transition from graduate administration student to nurse manager is difficult. One method of easing the transition is an administrative fellowship program. An administrative fellowship serves as a bridge between graduate education and management practice by providing the fellow with a supportive environment in which to operationalize theoretical knowledge. For the nursing department, it can be an effective way to recruit and select talented nurse managers for a challenging position.
