SCCANS – UPCOMING PROFESSIONAL
DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES…. Apply now!
Thanks to the SCC Student Government, SCCANS is fortunate to have the
financial ability to once again encourage students’ participation in a variety
of local CE opportunities and upcoming events sponsored by our Professional
Nursing Associations.
Directions:
1.
Please consider your personal interests and anticipated directions in
the profession, validate that your event choice
and attendance will NOT conflict with class or clinical schedules or gain
instructor approval, then
submit a “SCCANS
Professional Activity Application” to either Sharon Stewart or Lynn Von Schlieder (Club Co-Advisors). This includes some
mechanism for reporting back to your classmates, or at a club meeting and ideally
writing a brief contribution for consideration in the PULSE newsletter
describing your experience.
2. The Nursing Club hopes to cover your
student registration costs (or a percentage - based on program’s total cost, # of student
applicants, or funds available for remainder of this academic year). Costs of transportation and parking, and food
or materials not initially included in the registration fee will be the
responsibility of attending students.
3. Planning in
advance is desired and often expected for early registration discounts… minimum planning time of 2-3 weeks before an event is
realistic! Once the application is approved by the
SCCANS Sub-committee & Co-advisors, it will be determined if students
should self-register directly and then be eligible for reimbursement -- or if
the Nursing Club will process small group registrations and have the College
pay in advance.
4. Participation at such events under
SCCANS Sponsorship also requires completion of SCC Club Travel Paperwork and
understanding of student conduct standards.
