The UGONSA National Professional Conference and
Scientific Update is a classic event where scholars, researchers and
administrators in the nursing profession gather to exhibit and review
scientific works and underlying theories of nursing practice for the purpose of
improving on medico-nursing knowledge and skills, for enhanced qualitative
client care.
Most universities and health institutions require that
their lecturers, higher degree students and clinical staff show evidence of
participation and presentation of their works at professional conferences as a
caveat for promotion, graduation, or professional distinction. The evidence
could be in various forms:
·
Evidence that the abstract submitted was
accepted for presentation at the conference through a letter that conveys such.
·
Showing that their work(s) is/are listed among
the items in the book of abstracts of the conference.
·
A release letter addressed to the
institution where the presenter works indicating that his/her work was accepted
for presentation at the conference and asking for release of such person(s) to
attend the conference and make the presentation.
·
Certificate of Presentation of the work
issued to the presenter at the end of the conference.
Does UGONSA National Professional
Conference & Scientific Update Meet the University/Health Institutions’
Standards and Requirements to Help Nurses Excel in Academia and Clinical
Practice?
Yes! UGONSA makes a call for submission of abstracts
for the next Professional Conference & Scientific Update at the completion
of every conference. The Abstract Review Committee, upon completion of review
of submitted abstracts, makes recommendations to the National Leadership of
UGONSA for acceptance or rejection of works.
Notification regarding acceptance or rejection of abstracts is sent to
the submitters. The authors whose works were accepted for presentation are
issued with a letter of acceptance of their abstracts for presentation at
UGONSA conference. Their works are then published in the book of abstracts.
Thereafter, applications for their release to attend the conference, and
present their papers, are made to the Heads of their institutions, Vice
Chancellors, Provosts, deans, etc. At the end of the conference, the authors
that made presentations are issued with certificates of presentation by UGONSA
which they can submit with the book of abstracts to their institution as proof
of participation and presentation at the conference.
How Can I Confirm That UGONSA National
Professional Conferences & Scientific Updates Can Offer These Benefits and Opportunities?
Kindly submit your abstract or attend the upcoming 20th
conference to confirm for yourself, as the proof of the pudding lies in the
eating. Deadline for abstract submission for the upcoming conference has been
