NURS-FPX4905 picks up where NURS-FPX4900 leaves off — refining the evidence-based practice proposal and building the professional presentation materials capstone work is ultimately meant to produce.
Refining the capstone proposal
NURS-FPX4905 requires revising the initial proposal based on feedback, strengthening the evidence base and tightening the implementation plan, mirroring how real practice-change proposals require iteration before being ready for actual stakeholder review.
Professional presentation of the capstone project
The course culminates in a professional-quality presentation summarizing the practice problem, evidence, intervention, and expected outcomes in the concise format real evidence-based practice proposals require for a busy clinical audience.
Key topics in NURS-FPX4905
- Incorporating feedback to strengthen the evidence-based proposal
- Finalizing implementation timelines and evaluation metrics
- Building a professional capstone presentation
- Presenting to a clinical or shared-governance audience
- Reflecting on the capstone process and BSN program learning
- Preparing capstone work for a professional portfolio

Worked example: condensing a full paper into a presentation
- Full paper: A detailed 15-page evidence-based proposal
- Presentation constraint: A shared governance council has 10 minutes and expects a concise business case
- Condensed structure: Problem, evidence summary, proposed intervention, implementation plan, expected outcomes — one slide each
- Lesson: A strong presentation persuades a busy clinical audience quickly rather than reproducing the full academic paper

Frequently asked questions
Splitting the capstone reflects how real practice-change proposals actually develop — an initial draft benefits from a dedicated cycle of feedback and revision, rather than treating the first version as the finished product. NURS-FPX4900 focuses on the harder analytical work of identifying a problem and building the evidence case, while NURS-FPX4905 focuses on refinement and translating the work into a format suitable for actually presenting to a real clinical audience — mirroring the genuine difference between researching and drafting a proposal, and successfully pitching that proposal to the stakeholders whose buy-in is needed to implement it.
An academic paper format, appropriate for demonstrating full scholarly rigor to a course instructor, doesn't match what a busy clinical audience like a shared-governance council actually needs — they need a concise, persuasive summary they can absorb quickly and act on, not the full literature review and methodological detail an academic paper includes. NURS-FPX4905 teaches this translation skill because being able to condense rigorous work into a clear, compelling, audience-appropriate presentation is itself a genuinely valuable professional skill — a proposal that reproduces academic-paper-level detail in a presentation to a time-constrained clinical audience will likely lose that audience's attention before ever reaching the actual recommendation.
