Registration Process
We offer two ways to register – 1) as an individual and 2) as a group or school.
The deadline to register is February 23, 2022.
Individual Registration
Individuals seeking to participate and register on their own, not with a school or group, may register online.
Group & School Registration
Schools of nursing and specialty groups seeking to participate in the event together as a group (i.e., seating) have two registration options. Groups of 20 people or less may register online. Groups of 20 or more must register using the Group Registration Form and corresponding Group Payment Form below. Online registration is not an option. See instructions below.
Smaller Groups of 20 or less
Smaller groups may register online by clicking the Register Now button, or complete and submit the Group Registration List and corresponding Group Payment Form (forms below) to our office for processing. Register groups of 20 or less online at: https://cvent.me/yGdrPw
Larger Groups of 20 or more
Please complete the Group Registration List and corresponding Group Payment Form below. Both forms are required. The Group Payment Form will ask you to identify the total number of students versus faculty participating along with payment information, and the Group Registration List will ask you to identify each individual in your group by first and last name, address, email address, and type of registrant (KSNA Member, Non-Member or Undergraduate Student). Please submit both forms to our office for processing. We will communicate details about registration and the event to the individual identified as the faculty/group liaison on the forms.
REMINDER: It is important that payment be in the form of ONE check (no individual student payments please), money order, or ONE credit card covering all attendees from the group/school.
