Member Benefits
NEWSLETTER
Individual membership in SIGNEA entitles you to a newsletter three times a year.
You are invited to contribute by submitting articles to the editor. National member
country organizations receive a number of copies for distribution among their members
in addition to the copies received by individual members in that country. The newsletter
contains articles of clinical interest, news from member countries, contact name
and products, teaching aids available from member countries and notices of forthcoming
conferences of interest.
SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
SIGNEA is working with national member countries and corporate sponsors to develop
a scholarship program to support GE nurses from developing countries to attend conferences.
MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY
SIGNEA publishes a membership directory, listing individual members, national member
countries and corporate sponsors.
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
SIGNEA conducts a formal educational program every four years, held in conjunction
with the World Congresses of Gastroenterology. However SIGNEA board members are
active presenters in education events world-wide. Members are notified in advance
of such events through the newsletter.
DEVELOPING COUNTRY SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
SIGNEA is compiling a database of national member countries, regional groups or
individual nurses who would be willing to sponsor SIGNEA membership for a group
of nurses or an individual nurse in a developing country and perhaps correspond.
Sponsors and eligible recipients will be matched by SIGNEA.
Membership in SIGNEA means that you are part of the global network of gastroenterology
nurses.
