Breakout Session Proposal – 2026 Illinois CNA Conference
Are you an Illinois CNA instructor or program director with valuable insights to share? We invite you to submit a proposal to present one of nine breakout sessions at the 2026 CNA Conference.  

We’re looking for sessions that highlight your experience, expertise, and practical strategies in areas such as teaching methods, compliance tips, active learning, curriculum development, and more. This year’s theme, From Bedside to Blackboard: Thriving as a Nurse Educator, focuses on the transition from clinical practice to education—so we encourage proposals that support and explore this journey.

Breakout sessions are 50 minutes in length. Presenters selected for a concurrent session will receive guaranteed and discounted conference registration (up to 3 presenters per session).

Proposal Deadline: Monday December 1, 2025 by 4:30 pm. We plan to contact and confirm all speakers by the end of December.
