Liderança e cooperação: 25 anos de missão como centro colaborador da OMS

“…In the first four designations, the required human resource training focused on training in research that would lead to improvements in service quality, in nurses' participation in decision processes and in nurses' leadership in evidence-based practical processes (9)(10)(11)(12) .…”

“…If, at the start of the 1980's, a range of specialization courses could be offered, as the demand for the three Master's programs (Psychiatric Nursing, Nursing Fundamentals and Public Health Nursing) and four Doctoral programs EERP-USP started to offer increased (Interunit Program, Nursing Fundamentals, Psychiatric Nursing and Public Health Nursing), the faculty members' action had to be focused on the orientation of stricto sensu research projects. Thus, clients from services interested in specializations were no longer attended to, starting to attend to those nursing service leaders who sought Master's and/or Doctoral education (9)(10)(11)(12) . On the other hand, as from 1991, the Graduate Programs at EERP-USP gradually expanded their clientele, starting to receive professionals from other knowledge areas (1) , which resulted in the strengthening of interdisciplinarity in the development of nursing and health research.…”
