Looking for accelerated nursing program?

Hello there, I'm new to this site so I apologize if I'm not posting in the right spot or something. I am at the moment a certified ekg technician, phlebotomy technician, home health aide, and patient care tech. I really want to get into nursing school but just haven't been sure if I can take that much time to go back to school, or if I can afford it. But a friend of mine was telling me about a nursing program she heard about that was an accelerated course- 1 year of school for an RN degree. I live in Michigan, metro detroit area. Does anybody know of a school like this? Thank you so much.

    Yes I would consider Excelsior College over a RN program in my area because I need to continue working full time and be with my family. I want to speak with an academic advisor from Excelsior but Im not finding contact information. I'm researching becuase I'm really interested just want to talk with people who have been through it and can tell me about their experience. THanks for the reply

    There are many EC students and graduates who frequent the distance learning forum: Distance Learning for Nursing - Nursing for Nurses

    Oh okay. I am a healthcare provider currently, on medical leave from my job. But not a nurse. I think the closest certification I have to LPN is the PCT cert- but I'm sure there is a lot more schooling required for the LPN. Thanks again for all your help. :)
