title: Longitudinal evaluation of a live interactive video baccalaureate nursing program.
abstract: Beginning with a brief history of a community-inspired distance education initiative, the authors describe how one college of nursing offers an entire generic bachelor of science in nursing program over live interactive video for nursing students at 2 distance sites. The 10-year longitudinal evaluation of student and program outcomes is presented. Student and program success is evidenced by congruence of grades and National Council Licensure Exam (NCLEX) pass rates between sites.
