KANS Academy

Learn it. Use it. Prove it.

Four tracks and 31 modules for Kentucky pre-nursing students, nursing students, chapter leaders and faculty. Every module takes about an hour and ends with something you keep: a study plan, a budget, a pathway plan, a credential you can share.

    Capstones and advanced programs

    C-Capstone · Chapter Impact Project

    Purpose: prove leadership with results. The learner (or a team of officers) identifies a chapter problem, plans a solution using Track C tools, carries it out over 6–12 weeks, and reports results.

    Board Governance Fellow program (advanced)

    A four-session program for KANS board members and state-level candidates, adapted from the KANS 2026 Board Retreat ("Becoming a Board"). It can run as a retreat day or four 90-minute virtual sessions. The narrative arc moves through five stages: Identity → Responsibility → Authority → Accountability → Agreement.

    D-Capstone · Advising Plan

    A7 · Capstone: My Pathway Plan
