ABSTRACT
In light of the Canadian Nurses Association's position that the baccalaureate degree would be the requirement for entry to practice by the year 2000, plus evidence of a rapidly changing health care system, changing client characteristics, and on-going economic constraints, administrators of nursing programs in Edmonton recognized the need for a more process-oriented curriculum to prepare nurses to be more capable of facing future challenges. Not surprisingly, limited funds and differing human and material resources meant they could not complete a major curriculum change individually. Collaboration proved to be the key that increased access to baccalaureate nursing education in Alberta.
