Scholars in the program created, with support from mentors, individual development plans focused on scholarship, teaching, service, and leadership. Identified program outcomes incorporated goals and objectives related to leadership development, nursing education skills, and the creation of focused programs of scholarship. In addition, program outcomes fostered engagement and skill development in institutional, university, and professional governance systems. Long-term program outcomes were to establish scholars in the discipline to be next generation academic leaders. Efforts to achieve outcomes focused on scholars' development of academic career plans that integrated research and teaching ( Hickey et al., 2014 ). The three-year orchestrated leadership development curriculum was created by a National Advisory Committee and directed by a senior program officer, a program director, and the Chair of the National Advisory Committee ( Campbell et al., 2017 ). The program's curriculum included learning opportunities delivered through biannual conferences, conference planning, and webinars on many topics such as university finances, the role of foundations, scholarly leadership, role of private and federal agencies, health policy, intervention research, institutional leadership, key trends in academia, diversity, community engagement, board training, and communication and media training ( Hickey et al., 2014 ).
