Abstract
Collaboration between academia and practice organizations will result in nursing graduates that possess essential characteristics for success in a radically transforming health care environment and, likewise, will alter the practice environment in ways that will better support nurses' professional values and contributions to care of clients. Development of such a partnership is described in this article.
