The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Academic Affiliations (OAA) Post Baccalaureate Registered Nurse Residency Program (PB-RNR) is one of VA's premier education and training programs designed to prepare the next generation of confident, competent, and practice-ready Registered Nurses (RN).

Program rolling start dates begin February 11, 2024 - March 25, 2024 and vary by location.
The OAA nurse residency programs follow the academic-based federally funded traineeship model which differs from the employee-based/on-the-job model. The federally funded traineeship model offers:

- 100% training time; the resident position is not counted in staffing FTE
- Robust curriculum with 80% experiential activities applying academic concepts into practice and 20% didactics that builds upon academic learning
- Training focused on building comprehensive clinical knowledge and competency development, allowing participants to rotate through various clinical settings to promote critical thinking and broaden experiences

- Resident pay is based on taxable pre-determined stipend with locality adjustments as applicable
- As a federal trainee you are eligible for certain benefits such as Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB), sick leave, and annual leave.
