New NANN Member Benefits and Pricing

You may have noticed something a bit different if you’ve logged into your NANN account since November 1. On that day, all members received a notable increase in the benefits they receive from NANN. All members now receive 20 hours of free CE and the following free digital products:

To find CE products free to members only, log into iLearn, NANN’s new learning management system, and search the catalog for “free member CE” or filter for “free member CE”. Pricing will be listed as $0.

This increase in benefits coincides with a small rise in membership dues, NANN’s first in 6 years. With these additional benefits, the value of your membership is now approximately 5 times the cost of membership. The more you tap into your member benefits, the more valuable your membership is!
