Dear ASNA Members,
It is time to register for the 2021 Virtual Spring Conference - 21st Century School Nursing brought to you through a partnership of the Alaska Nurses Association (AaNA) and the Alaska School Nurses Association (ASNA) April 23rd-25th, 2021. This is just like our traditional three-day conference, but this year we are going VIRTUAL! We wanted to make sure we reach School Nurses across the state of Alaska and we all stay safe! We are bringing you the most current information from professional content experts. The goal of our conference is to provide evidence-based continuing education for Alaska School Nurses, and we have so much to offer this year! Our speakers are covering many of the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) Framework for 21st Century School Nursing Practice topics. We will start with a learning review on Friday, 4/23 at 4 pm on how to use the Guidebook app, followed by Myth Busting Allergies, Updates on Concussions, Emergency Response in the School Setting, Change Management, Recognizing Sex Trafficking and Advocating, Social Determinants of Health, FASD through the Life Span, Updates on Vaping, How to be an Anti-Racist School Nurse, Pediatric Dental Prevention, Emergencies, and Oral Surgery, and much more! It is sure to be three days packed with great learning opportunities for all. You won't want to miss it!
The Alaska School Nurses Conference cost is $100 for ASNA Members, $150 for Non-Members. You can earn up to 16.25 contact hours of continuing education credits if you attend all three days. There is one fee for all three days, but the continuing education credits are given by the full days you attend. This year we have a huge BONUS for ASNA MEMBERS! ASNA received grant money from the State of Alaska and the CDC to help our organization provide continuing education for School Nurses. As an ASNA Member, you will only pay $30 for the conference, grant funds will cover $70 for each ASNA Member! This is a great opportunity and benefit for our members.
We will be using a Zoom Webinar format to view and participate in this year's Virtual conference. We will also be using Guidebook, a conference app that organizes all the information in one place. The details will be emailed to you after you have registered and paid for the conference.
If you have questions, please email us at alaskaschoolnurses@gmail.com. We hope you will join us!
