MANE Program Plan

Learning Activity Based Curriculum

The five clinical learning activities 1) concept-based experience, 2) case-based experience, 3) intervention-skill based experience, 4) direct focused patient care experience, and 5) integrative experience, align learning experiences and instructional strategies with the Ten MANE Competence Statements, the seven (7) Program Student Learning Outcomes (PSLO’s) and with the Benchmark Competencies of the MANE Curriculum Plan. **Please note that this is a sample of our MANE Curriculum Plan. Each of our eight partner institutions have a unique semester 1 and 2 requirements. It is essential that any prospective student reach out to a MANE advisor at their MANE home institution.**

Important to note that RN-BSN Degree completion programs typically require 60credits from the associate nursing degree and an additional 60 credits+ for a BSN degree to be awarded. All of these programs require an applicant to have successfully passed the NCLEX and be licensed.

MANE BSN Degree offers the nursing curriculum with lower division courses (75 credits) at your local MANE community college and upper division courses (45 credits) at your local MANE university. MANE does not require a student to have successfully passed the NCLEX and be licensed to begin their upper division courses.
