SGNA’s 54th Annual Course is heading to New Orleans, Louisiana, May 22–24, 2027, bringing GI nurses and associates together for three days of education, connection and inspiration in one of the country’s most vibrant cities.

Whether you are new to GI/endoscopy nursing or have spent years advancing the specialty, Annual Course is your opportunity to step away from the day-to-day, connect with professionals who understand your work and explore the ideas, practices and innovations shaping the future of GI care.

The 2027 theme, Connected in Purpose.

Through peer learning, expert insights and meaningful conversations, attendees will gain practical takeaways they can bring back to their teams, units and organizations.
