DNP 825 Full Course Assignments
DNP 825 Topic 1
Preconference Evaluation: Individual Success Plan (ISP)
Assessment Description
The Individual Success Plan (ISP) assignment in this
course requires your collaboration with the course faculty early on to
establish a plan for successful completion of mutually identified and
agreed-upon specific deliverables for your programmatic requirements.
Programmatic requirements are: (1) completion of required practice immersion
hours, (2) completion of work associated with program competencies, and (3)
work associated with completion of your Direct Practice Improvement (DPI)
Project.
A preconference meeting is intended for the learner and
preceptor/mentor to review course- and learner-specific learning objectives:
the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of the learner and
preceptor/mentor during this practice immersion experience. All faculty and
preceptor/mentor information will be given to each party by the learner. Any
course or program information requested by the preceptor/mentor will be
provided by the learner. During this meeting, the learner and preceptor/mentor
will discuss the course and practice immersion goals, including any projects
that are to take place. The faculty will review the submitted document and must
approve proposed projects at this time. The faculty will also send an
introductory email to the preceptor/mentor.
General
Requirements:
Use the following information to ensure successful
completion of the assignment as it pertains to deliverables due in this course.
- Locate and download Individual Success Plan (ISP) and Direct
Practice Improvement (DPI) timeline documents in the DNP PI Workspace.
- Review the DNP Program Milestones document in the DNP PI Workspace
and identify which domains, competencies, and milestones apply to this
course. Note: Not all courses have milestones.
- Determine what practice immersion experiences you plan to seek in
order to address each competency. Include how many hours you plan to set
aside to meet your goals. Learners will apply concepts from each of their
core courses to reflect upon, critically examine, and improve current
practice and are required to integrate scholarly readings to develop case
reports that demonstrate increasingly complex and proficient practice.
- Use the ISP to develop a personal plan for completing your practice
immersion hours and how competencies will be met. Show all of the major
milestones and deliverables in the timeline.
- Within the ISP, ensure you identify specific deliverables which can
include the following: individualized DNP practice immersion contracts;
comprehensive log of practice immersion hours applied to doctoral-level
learning outcomes; learner evaluations; preceptor/mentor evaluations;
current and updated CV; scholarly activities; GCU DNP competency
self-assessment; reflective journal; course goals and plan for how
competencies and practice immersion hours will be met; faculty and
preceptor/mentor approvals of course goals and documented practice
immersion hours; and DPI Project milestones.
- While an ISP is required, unless you have a mentor, a mentor
signature is not required for this course. A preconference and a
postconference/evaluation between learners and preceptors/mentors are
mandatory for all learners enrolled in all DNP courses (from DNP-815A on).
Conferences may be conducted face-to-face or via technology. A copy of the
wet-ink or digitally (digital identifier) signed document must be uploaded
into the digital classroom no later than the end of Topic 1.
- Overall course- and learner-specific objectives: These objectives
should be discussed during each conference, as learners are responsible
for completing all experiences as mandated for the program.
- Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing
assignments. The APA Style Guide is located in the Student Success Center.
- This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to
beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for
successful completion.
- You are not required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite.
- Learners will submit this assignment using the
assignment dropbox in the digital classroom. In addition, learners must
upload this deliverable to the Learner Dissertation Page (LDP) in the DNP
PI Workspace for later use.
Directions:
- Identify the specific deliverables you will complete throughout
this course from those defined above with your faculty. Update your
faculty/chair with any revisions or changes to the ISP.
- List the challenges you expect to encounter as you continue the
practice immersion hour and competency requirements throughout this
course. How might you overcome these challenges?
- Complete the Contact Information table at the beginning of the ISP
resource, and type in your signature (learner only) and the date on which
you completed the table. Read the information in the ISP document,
including the following: Learner Expectations, Derivation of the ISP, and
Instructions for Completing the ISP.

health outcomes for your selected at-risk population and explain why they
differ between your selected population and a population of comparison
from a similar area.

try and improve the health outcomes for this high-risk population and
whether they have been effective.
- Discuss current electronic or online consumer health
information available for the population on the health issue (e.g., the
