As a registered nurse (RN) student pursuing an advanced degree in nursing, you must reevaluate personal and collegial perspectives on what truly constitutes professional practice. You are at a gateway for advancing your nursing practice and the profession. To advance in your professional career, you must broaden and build on your knowledge base. This involves Mezirow’s (1991) theory of adult development and adult education as transformative learning. This theory proposes that the adult moves from technical and practical learning modes into the reflective learning necessary to understand perceptions of the self and the world. Callin (1996) describes this “perspective transformation” in nursing as requiring the opportunity for reflection, review, and critical thinking. This concept of perspective transformation provides an ongoing process in both personal and professional development.
