Hello student nurses!

As we get ready to wave good-bye to summertime and transition back to school, it’s time to get excited about MidYear!
​
The 36th Annual NSNA MidYear Career Planning Conference takes place at the Galt House in Louisville, Kentucky from November 8- 11, 2018. Our theme this year is “Step Up to the Plate and Swing for Success!” MidYear provides NSNA members and faculty with opportunities for professional growth and education. This year, we are holding various focus sessions showcasing 16 different nursing specialties! With our Career Readiness Panel and three Speciality panels, attendees will have the chance to speak directly to professionals in their area of interest and gain invaluable knowledge. As always, be sure to stop by the FNSNA Fundraising Party- bring your favorite team’s hat or jersey with you! Check out the Midyear Website.
