We welcome abstracts that highlight innovative teaching strategies, research, evidence-based practices, and forward-thinking solutions that advance Associate Degree Nursing education, faculty development, student success, workforce readiness, and leadership growth.

OADN seeks abstracts for 50-minute podium presentations supported by PowerPoint. Presenters should reserve time within the session for audience questions or interactive engagement.
