   I just finished the Tri c program LPN, the only concern that I have with a lot of the smaller schools is if your credits will transfer to another school should you want to become an RN. If you go to tri c or anther community college, then you will h...

9. Am I "too old" to change careers?!

    smyle2156 replied to curiousrainbowfan's topic in General Students

    Hi, have you thought about lpn? Most programs are around 1 year and LPNs have to work under a RN. This might help you to build up your confidence and If you want to continue then you can take a bridge program to become a RN. Just my 2 cents. School ...

    smyle2156 replied to movingon2008's topic in New Nurse

    I am a new lPN grad and the program is not as easy as people think. The best advice I can give is to stay on top of things and don't fall behind because it moves very fast... Use your resources like teachers and study groups. Another good tool is sau...
