Facilitating nursing workforce development by setting education levels for instructors at nursing schools as a requirement for state approval.

Summary

The bill changes Kansas law so that any school offering professional or practical nursing programs must show that its instructors hold a nursing or related medical degree that is at least one academic level above the degree awarded by the program. It also sets out how schools apply for and keep approval, how continuing‑education providers are vetted, and how out‑of‑state and nationally accredited schools are evaluated. The measure died in committee and never became law.
