The Associate Degree Nursing program builds on the knowledge and skills gained during Level I (Practical Nursing) and focuses on critical thinking, leadership and advanced nursing skills that are required to manage an acute care clinical area and care for individuals, families or communities with complex health care needs. You will receive hands-on training in the classroom and at supervised clinical experiences. After program completion, you will be eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-PN) and be qualified to work as a licensed practical nurse or a registered nurse.
