Hi! am a new member here and am glad to be a part of. Just wanna inquire about the KRC LPN -Distant learning program in Phils.Anybody knows about it? Is there somebody who can share me her/his experience? If graduating LPN in Pinas, r we still going to take Phil board or take immediately NCLEX-PN. thnx

Re: KRC (phil)

My questions would be,

Where are you now and will it be accepted by where you want to live and work?

You are aware that there are no local boards in the Philippines for LPN which may have a impact on where you plan on working as they may require a local license

Re: KRC (phil)

hello, silverdragon! thnx for the reply. I'm here in US but willing to take the distant learning from KRC. any info about this? thanks

Re: KRC (phil)

How are you going to do your clinicals etc? I really would be wary on doing a online course if you have no experience already as a nurse.

Re: KRC (phil)

yaps. That's why I'm hesitant too about the distant learning but i read here in the forum that somebody is graduating from KRC and just have to schedule the clinicals in Pinas. I hope he could also share.

I called the school too, they do have some support online if i have some clarification about the modules (that if i'll decide to enroll). The Dean said i'll let them inform when i'm already ready for clinicals. It's a 9-month on line modules and 3 months clinical. So having work in the US, I can still do my online course in my convenience. It's just that, I'm still confused coz I'm inmedical field going on online course.

ANyway, thanks for the info and advise.

Re: KRC (phil)

i mean i'm confused coz I'm NOT in medical field.

Re: KRC (phil)

I know California doesn't accept any distance courses for LVN.

Re: KRC (phil)

If you want to take PN, don't study in the Philippines. You will just waste your money coz eventually if you finish PN in Philippines for example, you cant find work or even be a volunteer to any hospital cause hospitals don't recognize LPN.
