How to Apply for an International Membership
Through our travels, we have learned that nurse leaders face similar issues no matter what country they reside in. Workforce, staff recognition, succession planning and leadership development are worldwide challenges — and AONL's resources are applicable to all nurse leaders.
Once you join AONL, you can connect with international members using the membership directory.
Membership is open to individuals worldwide, except where participation would be prohibited under AONL policy or U.S. law, including applicable U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctions.
