In the OR, its great. In the classroom, its boring and just powerpoint slides. Only good thing about classroom are the simulations which are kind of helpful. But its practically Nursing school 2.0 LOL
The schedule starts with 3days didactics/2days in the OR. 8 weeks of didactics(classroom) with assignments from aorn that will all lead to a final exam at the 8th week and exams throughout the 8 weeks. After the 8th week, it becomes 5 8hr shifts in the OR where you circulate for the whole week and then transition into scrubbing. Back and forth b/w specialties. I think thats all the info I can remember right now LOL
