   I don't think we covered hospitals at all. PM who your instructor was since I don't think we can name names. I'm curious. Glad it went well.

   They do have an evening program but I don't know if it's what you'd consider part-time.

   Correct. On azbn.gov anyone can look you and your # up. It's all public info so any employer can just search under your name and know if you have your license. You don't need the paper.

   When you go in to take your final someone will come in and talk to you about the boards. They have scheduled dates for your class or you can take it somewhere else but I recommend taking it at RSAA. I still don't have my license #. It can take 6 - 8 ...
