Are you looking for a refresher course or an NCLEX prep class? Moved to Florida nursing forum to elicit further response.

I am not a new grad and am an RN, but since I've been away from patient care for a long time I have been looking at refresher courses. Valencia Community College offers one for RNs and Herzing University also has a program. Look them up to see if those programs apply to LPNs too.
@ justbechynurse I'm looking for a refresher course because I recently graduated and about to sit the NCLEX @ sds1arm2 thanks I will try there, I tried Herzing University but they didn't offer one but I'm going to try Valencia Communit College
Refresher courses are for those who were licensed and out of practice, let their license lapse, or failed to pass the NCLEX in 3 times (or whatever # tries predetermined by BoN). They often cost a couple of hundred to a couple of thousand dollars.
If this is your first attempt at the NCLEX you are more likely in need of a NCLEX prep class. Nationally there is Kaplan and ATI for NCLEX -PN
thanks much
