Scope of the Conference

Aims and Scope

The NETNEP series of conferences is designed to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and experience of nursing and healthcare workforce education worldwide.  The two journals (Nurse Education Today and Nurse Education in Practice) support this endeavour through encouraging the sharing of this knowledge and experience through publication.

Internationally, the future of nursing, midwifery and other health professional education is dependent on ensuring leaders in each field of practice and successful succession planning for educators of the future. At this conference we want to explore many of the developments taking place internationally to ensure this future and to learn from, and work with, each other to ensure quality health care delivery; optimal outcomes for the people with whom we work; and successful development of our professions.

There are complex issues facing healthcare education. Across higher education and the practice context the workforce is ageing. Ensuring ongoing professional development, scholarship and leadership development is equally important for students and practitioners. The age and complexity of people who use health services is increasing, and the context in which services are delivered is dynamic and changing. Research, scholarship and evaluation is central to ensuring professionals are agile, flexible, innovative and responsive to current and future challenges.

As one of the world’s leading education conferences, the NETNEP series attracts delegates from more than 40 countries worldwide which brings a richness of sharing with, and learning from, each other. Networking and collaboration is promoted throughout the conference.

NETNEP 2024 will feature a large number of stimulating presentations throughout the three day event, including keynote presentations, oral and ‘Rapid 5’ presentations, and poster presentations.  Delegates will hear about the latest research or innovation in education in a myriad of different contexts, and will have the opportunity to actively participate in an interactive program.

Presentations from nursing, midwifery and other healthcare disciplines are encouraged to promote interprofessional dialogue and we encourage oral and poster submissions from a diversity of disciplines. The engagement of different disciplines is reflected in the promotion of interprofessional perspectives in Nurse Education in Practice and Nurse Education Today.
