StudentMAX serves as our cornerstone tool to post and request clinical opportunities.

It is well known that there will be a critical demand for nurses throughout the United States over the next 15 years. In Oregon alone, the demand will exceed 15,000. Many states, including Oregon, are expanding nursing programs to increase enrollment and numbers of graduates. But even with innovative clinical models, we are still faced with the daunting task of finding clinical placements.

StudentMAX®, a centralized clinical placement software system, provides the solution. Designed in 2004, this web-based system has a proven record in increasing placement capacity not only in the Oregon and Southwest Washington region, but also throughout the regions of the 10 states licensed to use StudentMAX®.

StudentMAX® has taken a cumbersome, time-consuming process with time and effort of both faculty and hospital educators, and streamlined the placement process to one that is efficient, timely, and collaborative. In Oregon and Southwest Washington, we have 100% participation of our academic and clinical partners.
