Happy Fall NSNA Members!
 
As cooler weather approaches and the leaves turn golden hues, the fall semester is almost over. Though our days may be filled with studying for exams and writing papers, it is our commitment and hard work that helps us perform well and prepare us for our future.
 
During the pandemic, we have faced challenges in our personal and educational lives. Learning how to rise above obstacles will help us as future leaders. Join us at NSNA’s Virtual 38th MidYear Conference, October 29-31, 2020. This year’s theme is “The Challenge of Change” where you will learn and develop skills to help you succeed as a student leader through these challenging times.
 
The NSNA staff and the Convention and Program Planning committee, chaired by the talented Emily Brunner, have prepared an event you do not want to miss. During the conference, you will have the opportunity to attend workshops and the NCLEX-RN Review, learn about nursing specialties, meet with exhibitors and participate in the career development center. You will be able to meet and network with NSNA leaders and students across the USA. Members and chapter officers will be able to learn skills to enhance their chapters with the many workshops including the NSNA Treasurers’ Certificate Program led by the incredible Stacie Kinsey, NSNA Secretary and Treasurer. We also will have inspiring speakers including Dr. Ernest Grant, the 36th president of the ANA as our keynote address speaker.
