title: Melting the ice: managing change in education.
abstract: Project 2000 signals a new era for the nursing profession; the changes inherent in it will affect all nurses in all aspects of nursing. Crucial to its success will be the way in which the change process is managed. Change is rarely welcomed, and the natural tendency is to resist it. It is perhaps significant that in a recent final examination paper, a student wrote confidently that all nurses in the clinical area were against Project 2000.
