Applications for the APRN Advisory Committee at the Ohio State Board of Nursing are now being accepted. OAAPN members interested in being considered by OAAPN for nomination to the APRN Advisory Committee for one of the three positions listed below will need to complete the OBON application and return it along with your CV to execdirector@oaapn.org, by Sunday, May 5.

At this point, you should not return the application to the OBON as the application requires a letter of recommendation (LOR) from a supporting APRN organization or school. If you are selected, OAAPN will provide you with the LOR and then you must submit your application to the OBON by Thursday, May 16. You can find additional information and the application at this LINK.

The Board will appoint APRN Advisory Committee members at the May 22-23, 2024 meeting.
