Instructions

Use this form to develop your Individual Success Plan (ISP) for each course, starting in DNP-805 through graduation. An individual success plan maps out what you, the DNP Learner, need to accomplish in order to be successful in your current course and overall program of study. You will also share this document with your mentor, preceptor, or content expert (CE) at the beginning of week one (like a pre-conference) and by the end of week eight of each course (like a post-conference).

In addition to the ISP, all DNP learners in DNP-836, 836A, DNP-837, 837A, DNP-838, and 838A will schedule a mid-conference between the faculty, mentor (preceptor), and learner before week five.  This mid-conference document is located at the end of the ISP and will be uploaded into the week five dropbox Learners will type their names, and the mentor, preceptor, or CE will need to electronically sign with software that uses a displayed digital identifier or written signature.

For you to successfully complete and graduate from the DNP Program, you must meet the following programmatic requirements: (1) completion of required practice immersion hours, (2) completion of work associated with all DNP and GCU program competencies, (3) successful defense and completion of your Direct Practice Improvement Project including signature by the Dean. DNP Learners who are deficient in hours or have a final manuscript deemed “not ready” for Dean’s review at the end of the program may require additional extension courses to meet programmatic requirements prior to Dean’s approval.

It is your responsibility to obtain the practicum hours, log them correctly, ensure they are signed off, and upload a copy to the week eight (8) drop-box in order to receive a letter grade.  

 

ISP Table Requirements

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment as it pertains to deliverables due in this course:

• Review the DNP Program Milestones document in the DC Network – Doctoral Program – DNP Program Materials – Folder – DPI Milestones. Please see the DNP Program Timeline in the DC Network for a quick overview.
• Determine what practice experiences you plan to seek in order to address each course objective. Include the estimated number of associated practice immersion hours. Learners will apply objectives and concepts from each of their courses to reflect upon, critically examine, and improve current practice and are required to integrate scholarly readings to develop case reports that demonstrate increasingly complex and proficient practice.
• Use the ISP to develop a personal plan for completing your practice immersion hours and self-assess how you will meet the GCU DNP Domains & Competencies (Appendix A) related to that course. Show all the major milestones (if applicable) and deliverables. ISPs do not earn practice hours, nor does telephone conference time or time spent with the mentor (unless there is National Emergency). Add your pre-, mid-, and post-conference dates and times to this document to ensure you have scheduled the time properly.

The table below should address the following programmatic requirements: (1) completion of required practice immersion hours, (2) completion of work associated with all DNP and GCU program competencies, (3) successful defense, and completion of your Direct Practice Improvement Project, if applicable to the current course.
