2006 State Grant Funds

Great News! The ENA Board of Directors recently approved $2000 for each State Council, for the 2006 TNCC/ENPC/CATN grant program. This money was sent along with the 2nd quarter 2006 TNCC/ENPC assessment checks.

While there are no strings attached to the funds, and no time restrictions, we would like to hear how the funds were used so that success stories can be shared. Please contact Maureen Howard, Course Operations Manager, at 800-900-9659 ext 4010, or mhoward@ena.org , or email us at coursebytes@ena.org .

The following link Connection Grant stories to the ENA Web site recaps the articles that have been published to date in Connection. These articles report how the grant monies have been used by the states that have shared their stories with us.

Course Schedules on the ENA Web site

Currently when a course is added to the ENA Web site, the Course Director�s telephone number or email address is displayed. If the contact person for the course should be someone other than the Course Director, please be sure to note that person�s name and contact number or email address on the application to ensure that the correct contact information is posted.

When you find that a course is full prior to the actual course date, please call or email Course Operations to request that the course be marked as full on the ENA Web site. This should improve our service by eliminating the frustration of nurses trying to register for a course that is already full. You can reach Course Operations at 1-800-900-9659 ext 4120 or courseops@ena.org .
