Strength in Unity

Our First National Nurse Assistant Educators’ Conference

We held our first National Nurse Assistant Educators’ Conference in Sunnyvale, California, on June 6–7 - and what an unforgettable event it was!👏

More than 100 educators and stakeholders from 11 states came together to connect, share, and stand in solidarity with one another. We gathered not only to network and learn, but also to declare - loudly and clearly - that our work matters! The sense of community was powerful! The caring among colleagues was not only heartfelt—it was palpable.

This conference was far more than a professional gathering. It was a movement in action. As nurse assistant educators, we play a vital role in shaping the healthcare workforce of tomorrow. Events like this remind us that we are together in this mission.

To every speaker, exhibitor, and attendee - thank you! I’ve attended many conferences over the years, but I can truly say this one was among the most moving, educational, and just plain fun!🎉

To those who couldn’t join us, please enjoy the photos and mark your calendar: our 2026 conference is already in the works! Join us June 5 and 6, 2026 at West Valley College, 14000 Fruitvale Avenue, Saratoga, CA 95070. Watch for details here.

To those who were there, let’s carry this momentum forward and continue to uplift the future of nurse assistant education and certification together.

See you next year!
