Resources and Education for All Professional Navigators

Navigation & Survivorship News published on July 9, 2025 in Member's Memo

After each Local Navigator Network (LNN) meeting, the group leader or scribe completes a meeting summary and submits it to the AONN+ database. These reports provide a visual overview of the valuable education and work being done at the local level to meet the needs of individual groups. They also support the Oncology Navigation Standards of Professional Practice:

  • Standard 3: Knowledge—Oncology navigators possess and continually seek knowledge that reflects current navigation practices
  • Standard 7: Professional Development—Oncology navigators pursue professional development to maintain up-to-date practice knowledge
