: Agree!! See this link for info: http://www.sisip.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=articl... While Kate is 100% right, this is NOT how the term should be translated in your context. Please see my discussion answer.

"Infermiere professionale" no longer exists either - nurses here are now simply "infermieri". I would translate the title as "Italian Federation of Nursing Colleges".
