The Technology Informatics Guiding Education Reform (TIGER) initiative developed a 10-year plan for nursing's path toward computer and information literacy. It involved more than 1,100 nursing content experts, and it took three years to complete. This initiative successfully defined the basic technology competencies and required curriculum for nurse practitioner education. The TIGER initiative declared that it is a nurse practitioner's responsibility to understand and shape the landscape of healthcare technology in order to improve access, quality, and patient experience.
