Hello! I've been an LPN for 1 year and a half now in a pediatric ENT/Allergy clinic. I LOVE my job, but I am honestly looking at the job I am doing for my provider and at similar jobs in our system and realizing that nearly everyone else doing a similar job has their RN or they have been an LPN for decades and are making SIGNIFICANTLY (at least 10k/year) more than I am. This clinic wouldn't let me keep the position as an RN, but I can't help looking at the pay difference.
I am wondering if anyone would have any suggestions for LPN-RN online programs or would be willing to describe their experiences in them. Quitting my job is not an option and finding an evening program is next to impossible.
Thank you all in advance for your help! :)

Excelsior College offers a reputable distance-based LPN-to-ASN completion program that results in RN licensure in all states with the exception of California.
