Aligned With AACN Essentials and Nursing Accreditation Expectations
Benchworks nursing surveys help programs gather evidence used during accreditation review across major accrediting bodies, including CCNE, ACEN, and CNEA.
Survey results are mapped to the AACN Essentials, helping programs understand how graduates and alumni say they experienced key competencies.
Programs use Benchworks results to demonstrate graduate preparedness and program effectiveness during accreditation review, including evidence aligned with CCNE Standard IV.
Because surveys are administered consistently across cohorts, programs can track how student perceptions change over time and demonstrate continuous improvement.
