Interested in Sponsoring a Resident/Student at Congress?

This year marks the 30th year of the AANA Annual Congress Sponsor-A-Resident/Student Program

Help give an RRNA/SRNA a chance to attend the Annual Congress who may otherwise not have the ability to attend. All resident sponsorships made through the AANA Sponsor-A-Resident/Student Program are randomly selected by AANA. Individuals, state associations, schools of nurse anesthesia and partners in the profession may contribute to the program. Selected residents will be notified and reimbursed about one month after the Annual Congress concludes.

The AANA Foundation processes all randomly selected resident sponsorships, which are tax-deductible. The AANA Foundation Board endorses all selections.

To sponsor a resident/student, add the sponsorship to your cart during Annual Congress registration.

The AANA invites RNs who are not currently in a CRNA program to our Annual Congress in San Diego, CA with a special discounted registration rate. Please contact Jennifer Varhalla at jvarhalla@aana.com for a special RN code to use when registering.
