What motivates you in your role within the College?

“My motivation comes from the need for exceptional nurses in small, rural communities across the country. My team works on-ground with our learners to help facilitate them as they become competent and compassionate nurses. The collaborators who I work with give me the motivation to come to work every day. They help make things more consistent for faculty and our learners and overall it allows the learning process to be the best it can be.” Christi Dawson-Skuza, MSN, RN Senior Manager, Nursing Education Services

“One of the things that motivates me is knowing that my function has a crucial impact on the success of the College. I know each function does their part to help our learners succeed, but the finance portion is such a big part of it. When it comes to financial aid there is always something changing and change can be very scary, but I love learning new things. Another motivator for me is my awesome team. We always show up for one another and I am beyond grateful for them, I couldn’t ask for a better team.” Ruth Brutus BS Government Funding Management
