Nursing & Health Sciences Education Facilities 2027

Attend this conference to benchmark the latest planning, design, utilization, capacity, cost, and operational details of buildings, spaces, technology choices, and space utilization models being put in place to train the growing health workforce. This involves nursing schools and college health-science programs, and the new solutions to classroom, simulation, and clinical skills spaces that raise health education and training capacities. Nursing schools turned away more than 92,000 qualified applicants in 2025, and space is cited alongside faculty shortage as a reason. The 2027 program treats that capacity problem as a facilities question: what to build, what it costs, and how simulation, virtual reality, and hospital partnerships are changing the program. The conference is scoped to the academic side of the building --- education space, not hospital operations.
