NTI

Chapter Leadership Development Workshop (LDW)

Sunday, May 18, 2025, 1-5 p.m.
Hilton New Orleans Riverside
Grand Ballroom AB

This workshop will offer a leadership development presentation focused on skills needed for chapter leaders to manage change and ambiguity. Together, we will explore how the needs of chapters and their members may have evolved. We will identify potential resources and the support needed to meet the challenges in the current healthcare environment. This interactive workshop will provide participants with the knowledge they need to guide and support their chapters.

If you already registered for NTI, but not CLDW, contact our friends in Customer Care to amend your registration. Their number is 800-899-2226. We look forward to seeing you at CLDW!


Host Chapter & NTI Ribbons

Sunday, May 18 – Wednesday, May 21
Ernest N. Morial Convention Center – Resource Center Hall C

The Host Chapter welcomes you to the annual National Teaching Institute & Critical Care Exposition (NTI) and is sure you will enjoy your stay in New Orleans. Chapter volunteers will be available to answer your questions about New Orleans. There is so much to enjoy at this year’s conference. If there is anything they can do to help, please ask!

Take some time to explore the city. After spending a day full of educational sessions, there's so much to experience at night too. Learn more.

Stop by the Host Chapter Ribbon Wall to say hello and pick up your NTI ribbons. If this is your first time at NTI, begin participating in the popular tradition of collecting ribbons that recognize and display your accomplishments — such as chapter member or board member, volunteer or ambassador, plus many other fun ribbons. Certification ribbons are in the Certification Oasis booth in the Resource Center.

Enjoy your stay!

NTI Chapter Rebate

AACN is offering two rebates for AACN chapter members:

  • $75 rebate for chapter members who register for and attend NTI New Orleans in person, May 19-21 (Rebate applies to full-week registration only; not valid for daily registration)
  • $50 rebate for chapter members who register for and attend Virtual NTI, June 9-11

What you need to know about NTI chapter rebates:

  • The rebates are available for any current chapter member who registers for and attends the conference in person or virtually.
  • Rebates cannot be combined with any other rebate or discount program.
  • To apply for the rebate, complete the rebate form and email it to nti@aacn.org.
  • Submit your rebate application anytime after you receive your NTI registration confirmation. The confirmation is emailed to you once your registration is processed. You do not need to wait until after NTI. In fact, by submitting early, it is possible that you will receive your rebate before NTI.
  • Your rebate will be processed as soon as possible. Please allow six to eight weeks for processing.
  • All rebate applications must be emailed no later than June 9. This date allows AACN to process all rebates in a timely manner, so we can close out the fiscal year on June 30.
