Attention Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) and Association of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Nurses (APHON) Members!

ONS and APHON members receive a reduced, members-only certification rate. To receive this rate, you will need your ONS or APHON membership number. If you apply without a membership number, you will be charged the nonmember rate. If you've recently joined either of these organizations, it may take several weeks to receive your membership number. To obtain your ONS membership number, please call ONS toll free at 866-257-4ONS. If you've recently joined APHON, please note that ONCC receives monthly membership updates from APHON, and it may take approximately four weeks for your membership number to be recognized by the online registration system.
