DNP Portfolio
Access your DNP Portfolio via D2L. If you do not see a portfolio course in D2L called DNP Portfolio-Specialty (e.g. DNP Portfolio - FNP), please contact LHTI at 520-626-4357 for assistance. Click on the assignments tab in your D2L portfolio course to submit your DNP portfolio documents. It is recommended that you upload all available portfolio items each semester, as it will be easier to remember appropriate exemplar assignments and make the process more manageable. For any questions about the DNP Portfolio, please contact your faculty advisor.
Non-Clinical Immersion Hours
"Practice immersion experiences afford the opportunity to integrate and synthesize the essentials and specialty requirements necessary to demonstrate competency in an area of specialized nursing practice. Proficiency may be acquired through a variety of methods, such as, attaining case requirements, patient or practice contact hours, completing specified procedures, demonstrating experiential competencies, or a combination of these elements" (American Association of Colleges of Nursing (2006). The Essentials of Doctoral Education for Advanced Nursing Practice. Washington, DC: Author, p 20).
