ASPAN Region 1 News
Message from our Region One Director
8/5/2024​
The momentum in Region 1 continues! The fall virtual certification study group has started with nearly 90 members working toward earning their CPAN and/or CAPA certifications. Thank you to all who have stepped up as leaders and best of luck to our test takers.
Six Region 1 Components are busy planning fall seminars and all are offering hybrid options. If you need contact hours, there are ample opportunities to attend in-person or virtually. If you plan a virtual experience, consider hosting a watch party. Education is always more fun together!

November 8-9 is ASPAN’s Perianesthesia Development Institute in Oklahoma City. This annual event brings leaders from across the nation together to learn more about how to lead local Components. It is a great opportunity to learn from one another and ASPAN leaders. The entire event is $95 for in-person attendees. This year, we are excited to offer Friday evening break-out sessions to focus on specific needs. Saturday’s 6.5 CE content will be hybrid with a $25 virtual option for those who cannot attend live.
Mark your calendars for ASPAN’s National Conference in Dallas, TX April 26-May 1.
I’d love to meet you all there!
