Nursing conferences are a great investment for nurses. They provide the perfect opportunity to stay up to date on the latest research and nursing best practices. Many conferences invite attendees to submit abstracts for research that can be displayed at the event (this does affect registration fees). There is also ample opportunity to network with fellow nursing professionals, earn CEU contact hours, and simply get away for a few days.
Sifting through the endless lists of nursing conferences can be a daunting task. Luckily, we’ve done the hard work for you by compiling a list of both virtual and in-person nursing conferences, plus some that are important for the entire healthcare community. Some conferences do not have all their information for their events as it may be too early to register. Make sure to check periodically for more information.
