Hello and Welcome to allnurses.com
Good to have you with us. And, good to read of your interest as LNC.
Check out the sticky threads about the Milazzo course and the online AALNC course. There are other courses out there, too. Just keep researching and if you have specific questions about any of them, please post here.
When I first started out, I was working FT clinicals. Couldn't keep up that pace. I had to have at least 3 days a week to market and start/complete cases. But, some do work at least part time. And, if you plan on serving as an Expert Witness, you must be working in the clinical areas some.
Just start out and see how you prosper. Like I said, I could not market and work FT. It just wasn't feasible for me. I still teach and often take ED call, so I still am clinically active.
Good luck and we hope you enjoy allnurses.com!!
