Volunteers Wanted

The NENA Institute Board requests that all ENPs volunteer an hour of their time in the ENP booth at #NENA2019. We would like your help to spread the word about the ENP certification and the professional benefits of obtaining the designation. Booth volunteer duty is for one hour during your selected time slot.

Please consider setting aside a small fraction of time during the conference to help further the ENP program and provide future ENPs the opportunity to hear from an industry professional about the importance of ENP certification. You'll also receive volunteer points toward your own ENP re-certification.
