Why Lead a PCNA Chapter?
What Does a Chapter Leader Do?
Chapter Leaders work with a volunteer Leadership Team and PCNA's national office to create meaningful opportunities for nurses in their community.
- Host 1-2 educational programs a year.
- You’ll choose the date, venue, and meal
- Identify the CE speaker, topic, and set the agenda (choose from our ready-to-go slide decks if you prefer)
- Host the day of the event
- Participate in Chapter Leader calls
- Help ensure the chapter remains active and engaged
