Don’t consider this a professional obligation, consider this a professional opportunity!

Elections for the 2012 UNP board are soon approaching and now is your chance to nominate yourself or a friend. Becoming a board member allows you the opportunity to mingle with other professionally active NPs and to learn more about NP related political issues on both the state and national level. Most importantly, this is an opportunity for you to make a difference in your profession. Hurry! There is only 1 week left to nominate yourself or a friend for a board position on the only state wide nurse practitioner group in Utah. To nominate yourself or a friend, please write a professional biographical paragraph and state which position you are seeking: President elect, Secretary or one of two available board positions (1 year term as Communication chair and 2 year position as Education chair).
