Nominations

Nominations are accepted through April 30th of each election year. The WOCNCB issues an e-mail call for nominations at least 45 days prior to any election. When nominations are open, a live link on this page will give you access to an online nomination form. You will be asked to submit your employment information, educational background, and answer questions regarding your leadership abilities and skills. You will also need to submit your Curriculum Vitae and a current photograph.

Next, you will be contacted by the WOCNCB Nominations Committee Chair for a brief interview. If your application is approved, you will be notified of nomination acceptance by May 30th.

Elections

All WOCNCB certified nurses are eligible to vote in WOCNCB elections. Voting is conducted online only. Votes are accepted through July 15 in an election year. After tabulation of the ballots, voting results are posted on this web site and in the Certification eNews.

Note: All WOCNCB official announcements are sent via e-mail only. If you have changed your e-mail address in the last 5 years, please contact the WOCNCB office at info@wocncb.org.
