Obtaining CNA Certification
Upcoming Events
The following list describes events and conferences offered by various nursing and health-care organizations in Canada. They provide nurses with the opportunity to maintain current knowledge in their specialty, enhance their competence and earn continuous learning (CL) hours towards their certification and renewal. Visit your nursing specialty website to find out more about upcoming events and conferences.
Please remember that not all events and conferences qualify for credits towards CL hours for specialty certification or renewal. It is the participant's responsibility to inquire with the organizers if attendance can be counted toward this requirement.
