Hi! I recently decided to change my career path to become a nurse and am looking for education options. I have a degree in microbiology from Auburn so I hope most of my general courses will transfer. But I have a 9 mo old and will need to work most likely at least part-time. I am thinking of taking classes at a tech school in practical nursing at least to get me working in nursing and then maybe working toward an RN laterAny other options exist in the Altnata area? I live in Cumming.Cass

The first year you only have to commit two days per week for class/clinical. The second year requires Mon., Wed., and Fri. There are a lot of people in our program with jobs and children! Good Luck with your decision! :)
