Thursday, Aug. 20, 2026
schedule 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium (ELNEC) Summit will bring together nursing faculty, clinicians and healthcare educators from across the country to advance palliative care education and practice.

This two-day event will offer specialized training tracks including APRN Adult, Communication (Revamped), Core/Critical Care and Pediatric Palliative Care, allowing participants to deepen their expertise in providing compassionate care for patients with serious illness.

The ELNEC initiative is a national education program developed by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) in collaboration with City of Hope to improve palliative care education for nurses. Through its train-the-trainer model, participants learn evidence-based practices and return to their institutions prepared to teach this critical content to other nurses and health professionals.
