RNs or APRNs transitioning into the role of clinical faculty or preceptors from medically underserved areas within the Southeast (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee) selected to participate in the program will receive stipends and travel support to participate in the academy's online training modules, a week-long training intensive at Emory School of Nursing, and a shadowing experience at CAPES Academy’s clinical partners’ sites. The grant will also fund trainees’ ongoing professional development, monthly engagement activities, and membership in professional nursing organizations.

CAPES Academy will be accepting applications on a rolling basis for admission. A new CAPES Academy cohort will begin each Fall. Applicants can expect to have an admission decision in September each year.
Disclaimer: There will not be a job fair of any sort. This is not an effort to recruit clinical instructors and preceptors for Emory School of Nursing; rather, we hope trainees will return to their underserved and rural communities to work on training the future cohorts of nurses at their facilities.
