Thinking about life after Herzing? Now's the perfect time to dive into opportunities that can shape your future career. One fantastic first step is by joining a Student Nursing Association (SNA). These associations offer a unique glimpse into the nursing profession, connecting you with peers and professionals, and paving the way for the next stage to a fulfilling career.
The National Student Nursing Association (NSNA) is the nationwide organization for student nurses and supports nursing initiatives for students with conferences, leadership opportunities, and a digital magazine called Imprint, published for nursing students during the academic year. Other SNAs may be regional, such as the Wisconsin Student Nurses Association or Georgia Association of Nursing Students, or you can use the student membership to specific nursing fields, such as the Emergency Nurses Association and the Academy of Medical-Surgical Nurses.
Whichever you choose—national, local, or specialty—joining a SNA is a great way to kickstart your nursing career and enrich your time as a student.
Participating in events focused on your career path has a host of benefits, from meeting lifelong friends, learning about career opportunities, and being at the forefront of information in the nursing profession.
