November, 2025

AONL has partnered with American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) to announce the release of a new playbook to guide academic and practice leaders as they develop successful, sustainable partnerships. The AACN/AONL Academic-Practice Partnership Playbook: From Shared Vision to Action was developed by the joint AACN/AONL Academic-Practice Advisory Committee and combines practical strategies with exemplars, financial models, and more. The Playbook will be available online on November 24, 2025.
 
Additionally, AACN and AONL will host a webinar on November 25 to showcase the Playbook, highlight early implementation successes, and preview the committee’s exciting next steps.
