I'm looking to get "back on track" with my nursing courses (took some courses in the past, wasn't sure if it was what I wanted to do, took some other kinds of courses, and am wanting to look into nursing again). The spring semester at my local community college has already started, and the evening A&P sections are VERY small (two sections of 18 people each) and fill up VERY quickly, so I'm thinking about taking A&P I online.

Who has taken it online? Can anyone recommend a good source for online courses and the books?

And, did you check with the nursing school you planned to attend first and make sure that it would transfer? Who do I talk to?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Check www.ccconline.org

Their classes start the end of January.

I took A& P from www.iowacconline.com

Their classes started today but you may still be able to get in.

The required text was Hole's Anatomy and Physiology, but I also had the Marieb Anatomy and Physiology. Marieb is written more in depth, and HOle's is easier to understand.

Do ask your school if they will accept the credit first.

Great, thanks for the info. I've got to have my manager's approval (and some form filled out) before I sign up for the course (to get my tuition reimbursed by my company), and he's out all this week, so I'll have to look into the ccconline. Thanks!

Anyone else?

I'm taking A&P online through Rio Salado College which is a local cc here in Phoenix that specializes in online classes. All the CC's here are connected, so my classes will transfer between and then onto ASU if I choose to go.

Not sure if people outside of Phoenix can take Rio's online courses, because the final and midterm are supposed to be in person. I think you can set up a "proctor" though if you are out of the county. Not sure how this works though.

Yes, anyone can take courses from Rio Salado, it's just that you will pay out of state tuition, which is more expensive.

Even though I live in AZ, it's inconvenient to drive to Phoenix for the exams so I have mine proctored at my local community college.

I highly recommend Rio Salado to anyone looking for good online courses.
