DNP 955
Topic 1 Course Completion and Progression Acknowledgement GCU
The
DNP Direct Practice Improvement (DPI) Project requires extensive Proposal-based
work product in the relatively short course timeframe of DNP-955. Learners are
required to exhibit a high level of completion for the milestone assignments in
a timely manner throughout the course in order to be prepared to submit the
Benchmark – DPI Project Proposal (Chapters 1-3 and Appendix A) assignment in
Topic 8.
You
will be required to submit your final proposal manuscript (Chapters 1-3) in
Topic 8 drop box by the last day of class at midnight. You must submit this
assignment in the form of a single Word document. There will be no extensions
granted for this submission. Your submitted proposal will be sent to Academic
Quality Review (AQR). The AQR is performed by a qualified external reviewer
that provides a formal scientific merit review and quality assurance check on
the DPI Project Proposal. The AQR review will be returned to your chair. This
will take approximately 7-10 business days. If this manuscript proposal is not
submitted prior to due date, you will receive 0 points for that assignment and
will not undergo AQR, you will also not progress to DNP-960.
You
must:
- Confirm
your project meets the GCU DPI requirements that your project translates
existing knowledge or guidelines into clinical practice to improve patient
outcomes.
- Ensure
that your clinical questions are feasible with your population and
clinical site and in alignment with your method, design, data collection,
and data analysis.
- Remove
the scoring grids/rubric and previous embedded feedback from your proposal
for the Topic 8 AQR submission.
- Accurate
grammar, APA and scholarly writing is required. Please note that your
chairperson is not an editor. You will be responsible for ensuring your
compliance with APA.
- Remember that your manuscript will undergo several
reviews from your chairperson, content expert, AQRs, department
chairperson, and dean that will require multiple iterations. Please be
open to feedback and incorporate the feedback into your manuscript to
improve quality and rigor.
Looking
ahead:
- In
DNP-960 you will be completing your IRB submission.
You will need to have facility IRB approval (if your facility has an IRB)
prior to submitting to GCU. If your project site does not have an IRB, you
will be required to have site approval. GCU IRB submission is a stop-gap
in the program. If you do not submit to GCU IRB within the prescribed
timeframe of the DNP-960 course, you will receive a zero for Topic 3
assignment and you will not move forward to DNP-965. Please utilize all of
the IRB submission resources available in DC Network and The IRB platform.
- In
DNP-960 or DNP-965, once you receive
GCU IRB approval, you can start your project implementation. You should
never be sitting idle while waiting for IRB approval. Please start writing
your templates for Chapters 4 and 5 (without data until implementation
with IRB approval).
- In DNP-965, you
will need to submit a final completed manuscript in Topic 5 to AQR. If you
are unable to complete this submission, you will be required to take an
extension course to finish your project or manuscript. In Topic 8, you
will submit your final committee-approved manuscript for departmental
review. You will have the opportunity for one iteration with the department
until your manuscript is sent to the dean. If your manuscript is not
deemed ready to be sent to the dean by the department, you will be
required to take an extension course to continue to work with your chair.
You will need to have a dean-approved manuscript, completed all courses
with a passing grade, and 1,000 practice immersion hours to be eligible
for graduation.
Directions:
Complete
the following statement in a Word document and submit it to your instructor by
the end of Topic 1.
I, (INSERT NAME), verify
that I have read, understand, and will comply with all requirements set forth
for course completion and progression. I have reviewed the DPI Project
requirements and am fully aware of my options if I am not able to successfully
complete the required level of milestone development.
