Conduct an Internet search on five professional nursing organizations. Prepare a professional presentation to introduce your peers or nurses to these organizations and inform your audiences on the value of professional organizations.

Using a PowerPoint format, please report on the following:

  • Purpose or stated mission/goal of each organization
  • Membership requirements
  • Available resources available to both members & non-members
  • Nursing population targeted by the organization (for example: educators, Med-Surg nurses, Psychiatric nurses, Pediatric nurses, etc.),
  • Any advocacy groups supported by the organization, and associated publication(s)
  • Any topics or unique offerings you wish to include for each organization
  • An analysis of how each organization could potentially enhance your entry and support you as you enter the nursing profession (if the organization does not appeal to you, please report providing a rationale)
