Using the FNPS Forum

The FNPS Forum is where you will find information about the "business" of the society -- minutes from Board Meetings and General Meetings, agendas and review materials for upcoming meetings, etc. It is primarily a place where FNPS leadership posts documents for use by the membersip, however, within the Forum are several areas where members can post their comments and/or exchange ideas with others.

The Forum is open to all to read. Posting is restricted to Forum members. Any FNPS member is eligible to join the Forum.

The Forum can be accessed from the menu (under Chapter Coordination) or by clicking the link below:

Instructions for Forum use are found below.
