ABSTRACT
The Emerging Leaders program was the creation of nursing informatics leaders who are members of the Alliance for Nursing Informatics (ANI). The program is designed to provide the support and tools necessary for the selected midcareer professional to accelerate development in leadership competencies that both further the individual's career and advance nursing informatics as a whole.

The program is open to individuals who hold midlevel positions in informatics and who work in health services organizations, public health organizations and systems, nursing education, or information system corporations.

Applicants must hold a bachelor's degree, a master's degree is preferred, and have 3 to 5 years of experience in informatics.
