Faculty who have a major teaching role are encouraged to develop a more extensive Teaching Portfolio which can be used to help develop the teaching narrative.  In addition, faculty may want to consider including their Teaching Portfolio as a supplement for review by the P&T Review Committee separate from the required documentation.<br /><br />Information for developing a teaching portfolio is available and detailed on the UNMC Academic Services website:  http://www.unmc.edu/academicservices</li>

<p style="max-width:70em !important;"><span style="text-decoration:underline; font-weight:bold;">Scholarly  Activity</span> is not limited to clinical achievements but reflects the applicant’s contributions to the profession. Nursing scholarship is defined by the AACN as “the generation, synthesis, translation, application, and dissemination of knowledge that aims to improve health and transform health care” (AACN 2018 --http://www.aacn.nche.edu/publications/position/defining-scholarship). Practice Scholarship is defined (AACN, 2018) as scholarship that “…interprets, draws together, and brings new insight to original scholarship. The practice scholar applies evidence to practice, incorporating implementation and translation science.”</p>

<p style="max-width:70em !important;">Scholarship should be in a focused clinical practice or clinical teaching area with a special population. Narratives should demonstrate sustained growth in scholarship that is disseminated from a local level progressing to a national level. </p>

<p style="max-width:70em !important;">Presentations (paper or posters) may be an intermediate step in dissemination but published articles with you as first author are preferable. Publishing in clinical practice journals is acceptable. </p>

<p style="max-width:70em !important;">Scholarly activities can be connected with a professional organization in terms of development or revisions of practice guidelines or organizing symposiums/conferences.</p>

<p style="max-width:70em !important;"><span style="text-decoration:underline; font-weight:bold;">Professional Service</span> includes exemplary service and contributions to the CON, the University, and professional organizations. </p>

<p style="max-width:70em !important;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">CON:</span> Description of committee functions and your specific role, scholarly outcomes from committee work or impact on the organization, if appropriate. Appointments to a task force or Ad Hoc committees are included and describe the outcome from the committee in relation to the CON’s mission/vision and to University as a whole.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Professional Organization</span> Local, state, regional and national professional organization (appointed or elected) service is important to demonstrate sustained or outstanding contributions to the organization.  Describe the significance of the committee to the organization and any recognition associated with the committee’s participation.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Practice</span> Individuals who engage in practice as part of their professional service will provide a description of exemplary contributions. Describe your practice including population served, role, and members of the team providing service (interdisciplinary.)  Describe any consultations and/or program development that exemplifies contributions to patient care focused programs for a targeted population. Describe the clinical outcomes or impact of practice on patient/population health outcomes, satisfaction, or cost effectiveness (i.e. Triple Aims). Describe your specific contributions and role in revising policies, procedures, standards of care, and staff orientation and development.</p>
