Paper Instructions:

Conduct an Internet search on five professional nursing organizations. Prepare a professional presentation to introduce your peers or nurses to these organizations and inform your audiences on the value of professional organizations. Prepare to appraise your peers’ presentations.

Using a PowerPoint or Prezi format, please report on the following:

Purpose or stated mission/goal of each organization
Membership requirements
Available resources available to both members & non-members
Nursing population targeted by the organization (for example: educators, Med-Surg nurses, Psychiatric nurses, Pediatric nurses, etc.),
Any advocacy groups supported by the organization, and associated publication(s)
Any topics or unique offerings you wish to include for each organization
An analysis of how each organization could potentially enhance your entry and support you as you enter the nursing profession (if the organization does not appeal to you, please report providing a rationale) 


Presentation Guidelines
Design a 15-20 slide PowerPoint presentation (Prezi is acceptable) following the following guidelines:

Follow the 5/5/5 rule: no more than five words per line of text, five lines of text per slide, or five text-heavy slides in a row
Include a title slide with your name, date, course number & instructor name, and title of presentation
Provide additional information as necessary in notes (for each slide)
Include a reference slide with APA-formatted references
Cite sources appropriately for each slide in which resources are used
Use graphics to enhance the quality of the presentation. A picture, graph, or any visual component is generally acceptable every 2-3 slides; clip art or "fun" art do not qualify
Use an identical font sizes and background for each slide
Background is professional and free of distracting colors or image
