The Three Cs Model: the context, content, and conduct of nursing education.
The Three Cs Model integrates the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission's accreditation standards. The three major concepts of this model -- Context, Content, and Conduct -- relate to one or more of the accreditation standards. This model has been used to integrate three levels of programs in one nursing department and facilitate the self-study process for ongoing accreditation of each program. The model is used to implement the nursing department's strategic plan, provide a systematic framework for curriculum and program evaluation, design graduate courses, and develop a new doctor of nursing practice program. The Three Cs Model provides an innovative framework that integrates standards to verify, clarify, and amplify excellence in nursing education.
