Abstract

The use of concept-based curriculum (CBC) in graduate programs is somewhat unexplored, although it is found in undergraduate nursing education programs. CBC eliminates information overload and memorization; allowing students to think critically by linking knowledge gained in the didactic setting or from previous experiences to apply to clinical practice.
