Creating a Single Source of Truth: How UCSF Centralized Clinical Placements & Future-Proofed Its Nursing Programs

In this webinar, UCSF’s Nursing program shares how they transformed their clinical placement process with InPlace.

About the Clinical Placement Webinar

Decentralized clinical placement processes make it harder for nursing programs to scale, adapt, and support faculty—especially as program models evolve.

In this webinar, learn how UCSF School of Nursing centralized clinical placements across 11+ specialties to create a single source of truth using InPlace. Since 2019, UCSF has transformed how it manages students, preceptors, placements, compliance, and reporting—while future-proofing its programs through a strategic shift to a BSN-to-DNP model.

Tammy Ryan, JD, LLM, Clinical Placement Manager at UCSF, shares real-world lessons from building a centralized placements office, streamlining communication with clinical partners, and reducing administrative burden for faculty. Joined by Jenn Patrick, Customer Success Manager at InPlace Software, this session highlights both the operational impact and the partnership behind UCSF’s success.

You’ll learn how UCSF:

  • Centralized placements without disrupting faculty collaboration
  • Established a reliable source of truth for placements and partners
  • Supported program growth and change with flexible workflows
  • Saved time with bulk placements, evaluations, and reporting
  • How you can implement these strategies in YOUR nursing programs!  

If you’re navigating decentralized placements or preparing for program evolution, this webinar offers practical insights from a proven leader in nursing education.
