Endorsement by the EAUN

What is endorsement?

EAUN endorsement can include, but is not limited to, urological content or a related field through the following:

• Study days, courses, seminars or congresses, both face to face or online
• Brochures, books, publications, action calls or position papers
• DVDs, websites and apps

All applications will be reviewed by a panel selected by the EAUN board. Decisions regarding endorsement are ultimately at the sole discretion of the EAUN Board. EAUN will not consider anything that would bring the name or members of the EAUN or urological care for patients into disrepute.

What can and cannot be endorsed?

The EAUN views two areas for endorsement: firstly, that of non-profit and not-for-profit organisations, where EAUN supports or approves the position of said organisation; secondly, that of clinical content, materials or resources in the English language. The following areas are currently not being considered for endorsement by the EAUN: for-profit organisations, for-profit organisation’s products, services or individuals. Please contact the EAUN if you require support in determining if your initiative can be considered for endorsement.

It is important to note that the EAUN is not in any way responsible for the material or content of any subject submitted for endorsement.

What is the purpose?

The purpose of applying for EAUN endorsement, is to show that the content of educational programmes, training, or materials meet with what the EAUN considers as being worthy of public recognition. The content should promote best practice, underpinned by research where applicable, in urological nursing and patient care. Whilst guiding patients, nurses or related organisations in the health decisions and choices they make; capable of informing best practice; and informing continuous urological nursing care improvement.
