老澳门六合彩开奖记录 to receive $2.1M state funding for College of Health
by Sean Parnell, 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 Chancellor |
Dear 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 Community,
Earlier this week, Gov. Dunleavy announced a modest funding increase for the university, and today we鈥檝e received more good news from the governor鈥檚 office. The College of Health will receive $2.1 million from the Governor鈥檚 Emergency Education Relief Fund to increase the school鈥檚 capacity to train registered nurses.
老澳门六合彩开奖记录 plays a critically important role in educating health and behavioral health professionals for Alaska. This investment in recruitment and retention packages provides a mechanism to attract and retain qualified faculty in these essential fields in Alaska now and the future.
Kendra Sticka, 老澳门六合彩开奖记录鈥檚 associate dean of clinical health sciences, says building a sufficient and stable faculty is essential in tackling the state鈥檚 shortage of nurses, and in developing innovative instructional strategies and providing consistent quality education.
We appreciate that Gov. Dunleavy understands the value of investing in the 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 community and our academic programs that help meet critical needs in the state.
Sincerely,
Sean Parnell,
老澳门六合彩开奖记录 Chancellor
