Professional Development Plan

aura_of_laura · May 12, 2010

Professional plans are pretty straightforward: what to you want for your professional self, and how do you intend to achieve it?

I had to complete a ten year plan for my BSN graduation, and it went something like this (only with a little more detail):

"Ten years from now, I hope to be serving in the United States Air Force as a nurse officer. I anticipate earning my Masters of Science in Nursing and my PhD within that time frame, with the end goal of teaching nursing in a university setting. After looking into the costs of graduate-level education, I realized that I needed to balance the benefit of advanced education with the cost of going to school for the next five-to-seven years. The Air Force will provide me with the means to continue my education without ending up with a large amount of debt."

Hope that helps!
