description The aim of this study was to reduce barriers to achieving academic promotion among advanced practice providers. Educational sessions, an online tutorial, and mentoring sessions were implemented. A survey was administered to all advanced providers after the interventions. Of the 168 surveys sent out, 117 (67%) were returned. Subsequently, 32% achieved academic rank (a 52% improvement), and 35% were active in the process. Reporting of the most frequently identified barriers “lack of mentorship” and “difficulty understanding the process” was reduced by 100% and 71%. Strategies to decrease barriers can be beneficial in improving the processes and achievement of academic promotion. •Nurse practitioners (NP) and physician assistants (PA) engaged in education and research face identifiable barriers towards academic rank promotion.•A NP/PA survey following educational, innovative, and mentored interventions found a significant reduction in negative perceptions regarding academic rank for the NP/PA role.•Following the interventions, there were significant increases in NP/PAs applying for and obtaining academic rank within the enterprise.•As interventions to reduce barriers to academic rank increased, NP/PAs increasingly identified time commitment to the process as the most significant barrier.
