Sigma Theta Tau International Nursing Honor Society
Sentara College of Health Sciences’ Chi Kappa Chapter of the Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI) Nursing Honor Society is actively seeking nurse leader members who will help create an environment that will support the values of professional nursing— knowledge, scholarship, service, and learning.
Nurse leaders can help make a difference in our community, using their knowledge, experience, and caring attitudes. The goal of this organization is to foster a collaborative spirit between nursing professionals, nursing students, and the communities where we practice.
Eligible Nurse Leaders: An eligible nurse leader is a registered nurse, legally recognized to practice in their country with a minimum of a baccalaureate degree or the equivalent in any field, and has demonstrated achievement in nursing. To apply, nurse leaders must submit an application, a resume, and two letters of recommendation.
Current STTI Members: If you are already a member of STTI, you may become a member of the Sentara College of Health Sciences’ Chi Kappa Chapter by paying the $26 annual dues. Find more information here.
