UNE student nurses participate in the National Student Nurses Association 64th Annual Convention
Twelve nursing students from the University of New England attended the National Student Nurses Association 64th Annual Convention, March 30 - April 3, in Orlando, Florida.
The annual convention offers opportunities for students to network with other students, faculty and nursing leaders from across the country. General sessions, seminars, workshops and poster presentations enhance students’ academic and clinical skills, and they can expand their network at social events and in the exhibit hall. Graduating seniors can gain confidence with the NSNA/Cengage Learning NCLEX-RN® Mini Review.
