• Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree

• Unrestricted RN license (or eligible) in Michigan

• Experience with educational design and delivery that may include professional development, organizational/ hospital educator, or academic nursing education roles such as clinical, laboratory, simulation and/or didactic areas
