Answer to Question 1

A
The largest source of external funding for nursing education is through the DHHS BHP. This funding is generally for programs, not individual students.
There are governmental agencies that provide some student scholarships; however, the question specifically asked about program funding.
Hospitals do sometimes sponsor students who are already employees of theirs, but this question asked about program funding.
Corporate or individual sponsors are important sources of funding for most institutions, but the largest source of external funding for nursing education is the federal government.

Answer to Question 2

A, C
The foundations for the Essentials was created by the combined work of 50 nursing organizations, and the first edition was published in 2005.
The Essentials sets forth the minimum genetics and genomics competencies needed by all registered nurses, regardless of educational background or practice specialty.
The responsibilities set forth in this document are consistent with the traditional scope of practice.
The Essentials does not provide funding information.
The Essentials requires all levels of nurses to have the same set of minimum competencies.
