Volunteer as a mock interviewer at Annual Congress
RN-APRN mock interviews are coming to Annual Congress 2026, and we're looking for nurse anesthesia program administrators, educators, and faculty to volunteer.
During brief mock interview sessions, you'll provide prospective students with valuable feedback, encouragement, and insights as they prepare for nurse anesthesia program admissions. Each volunteer session is a one-hour commitment and follows a 5-minute speed interview format, allowing you to meet with multiple prospective students in a short, structured timeframe.
Mock interview schedule:
Saturday, Aug. 22: 4:15–5:15 p.m.
Sunday, Aug. 23: 8–9 a.m. and 3:30–4:30 p.m.
Monday, Aug. 24: 12:15–1:15 p.m.
