OR nurse training program, should I take the job?

Hi, I am a 23 year old girl living in Colorado. I graduated with my RN, BSN in May and have been working at a LTC rehab facility. I was just offered a job in an OR training program that has 6 months of training with 3 years of a commitment. I know that this is a wonderful opportunity and I am excited about it, but I am not sure that I want to be an OR nurse. I found the environment exciting, but it is never where I saw myself. I was planning on going into pediatrics or maybe even OB, but I eventually wanted to become a family NP. I know that I really could have the potencial to love this job, but I know that I could not as well. I have to make a choice by tomorrow, but if there is anyone who has been in this same situation, or anything similar, or who just has some good advice, I would really appreciate it!

What training program did you do? I am looking so hard for one and I am having no luck

Harborview Medical center in Seattle does a Periop 101 program for new grads once or twice every year
