RN and LPN are the licenses that you earn to be able to practice nursing. ADN, BSN, diploma, and entry level MSN are education levels that lead to taking the RN boards to get an RN license. LPN education can be obtained at community colleges, private or proprietary schools, and some adult vocational programs. You can get an LPN education at some community colleges and obtain an associate's degree or, alternatively a certificate, depending upon how the school LPN program is set up. The best situation is to obtain a BSN at a four year university or an entry level MSN. Most people get an ASN (ADN) and take boards for the RN license. The LPN license is limiting in work opportunities. LPNs typically work in long term care facilities or home health care. They are generally being phased out of acute care facilities. HTH
