KANS Academy
Learn it. Use it. Prove it.
Four tracks, two shared units and 70 learning units for Kentucky pre-nursing students, nursing students, chapter leaders and faculty, plus a library of templates, practice cases and guides. 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.
Start with your role, priorities and available time. Your next eight weeks connect to your Passport.

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").
