The program is a hybrid program. Theory courses are delivered in a hybrid format, with lab and clinical courses delivered in-person.
The course delivery varies by quarter. Some quarters courses are delivered in the evenings with a hybrid component. In some quarters students will have courses on one day per week. In quarters where there are lab and clinical components, students are face-to-face twice a week. In the final quarter of the program, students participate in the final practicum for the program with clinical following the schedule of their assigned nurse (up to 40 hours per week). Clinical rotations vary by site and can be day shift or evening shift, and on rare occasion, there is a weekend component to clinical.
The program takes 8 quarters (2 years) to complete. The program starts in the Fall and concludes in the Summer. This program does run in the summer quarters.
The program admits 32 students each Fall Quarter.
The program completes clinicals at long-term care facilities, clinics, schools, specialized residential facilities, corrections centers, hospitals and more. The majority of clinical placements occur within a 50-mile radius of the college, however on a rare occasion for specialty placements, students may be required to travel up to 70 miles.
The program is designed to allow you to work part-time while completing the program. This program is still time intensive, and we do not encourage students to work full-time while trying to complete this program.
