Co-providing Continuing Education with NASN
In addition to NASN as sole developer and provider of continuing education for school nurses, NASN can also develop and provide continuing nursing education with affiliated groups.  If your next event is for a school nurse audience and you want to work with NASN to develop your program for NASN continuing education credits, contact NASN today to discuss the co-develop process.  (note: If you have a program that has already been developed and needs approval for continuing education, you will want to contact an ANCC accredited approver of continuing education.  For a list of approvers, visit the ANCC web site at: www.nursingworld.org/ancc/accred/orgs.html)
