Welcome to WOCNext 2019!

We are thrilled to have you in Nashville to help us celebrate and launch the next generation of education from the WOCN ® Society. Over the last year, the National Conference Planning Committee (NCPC) has been hard-at-work enhancing our offerings to empower current and future generations of WOC nurses and other healthcare professionals. We set out to change the way we incorporate information sharing, education and attendee and exhibitor experiences in 2019 and beyond. From networking opportunities, schedule flexibility, varied educational formats and increased opportunities for product knowledge, there is something for everyone at WOCNext 2019.

Get ready for four days packed with evidence-based
research, expert analysis and inspiring stories. As you attend sessions and meet new and old friends over the next several days, we hope that the education, strategies and best practices exchanged during the event will serve you well. We hope you enjoy your experience in Nashville and we look forward to hearing from you throughout the event.
