Furthermore, CASN supports responsible governance, and has drafted the following privacy policy in that light.
As part of its programs and services, CASN collects data to support nursing education and nursing scholarship for the purposes of planning, administrating, forecasting and reporting.
Data collection may include student levels, faculty levels, educational offerings, curriculum content, areas of research expertise and international linkages. Contact information and curriculum vitae for deans, directors, faculty and researchers may be collected from time to time for specific projects.
