The AACN Chapter at UCLA is proud to present its 2025 Annual Symposium, Courage to Soar: Leading Excellence in Nursing Practice.
The AACN Chapter at UCLA brings together local and national nurse leaders to provide a forum that serves as a valuable avenue for reflection, professional growth, networking, and leadership development. The symposium is designed to recharge your passion for nursing, connect you with like-minded professionals, and provide valuable tools to elevate your practice.
We are excited to announce that our keynote speaker will be Jennifer Adamski, DNP, APRN, ACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, the President of the AACN!
This year, we have a special session that focuses on connecting frontline staff with nurse leaders to share insights and discuss strategies for building genuine collaboration. We believe that fostering these connections is essential for enhancing communication across all levels of nursing, improving patient care, and elevating nursing practice.
Join us for this inspiring experience and take the opportunity to reignite your passion for nursing!
