NZNO sections and colleges

The New Zealand Nurses Organisation (NZNO) hosts 23 specialty practice groups within the wider organisation.

The larger groups, with more formal structures and systems, are known as “Colleges” while the smaller groups are called “Sections”.

Benefits of belonging to an NZNO national section or college

Our sections and colleges:

  • provide expert knowledge and advice to the government and other national bodies.
  • participate in the development of evidence-based guidelines and specialty competencies.
  • advance practice through policy and professional development opportunities.
  • keep you informed through newsletters and publications.

You can be part of this!

As an NZNO member you can join up to two sections or colleges related to your practice. Non-NZNO members may be eligible for affiliate membership.
