luv4nursing 546 Posts Specializes in Med/Surg, Tele, Peds, LDRP. Has 5 years experience. Aug 27, 2011 I took the bridge program at Valencia Community College in Orlando, totally online except exams (midterms, finals) and clinicals (1 12 hour clinical a week)...the first few weeks you have to be on campus a lot for "lab". Then at the end you have a preceptorship that is so many shifts following a nurse. You had weekly quizzes and discussion postings also. It was very doable and I commuted from Tampa the latter part of the year. Melbourne would be a similar commute. I would suggest the program to anyone! Good Luck!
