Thank you.
I would like to add that right now, in nursing, we have three applications for every one entry into the seats available. Our report, Tested Solutions, suggested that we should be increasing the number of seats by 1,000 for three years, from the year 2009 when it was launched until 2011. The impact would such that it would take 15 years to actually reduce our projected shortfall of 60,000 FTEs to 45,000 FTEs.
As you can see, we need to keep producing students, because we also have retirements coming. We have demographic realities. Reducing the seats will not be a solution; it will compound the problem.
