I just saw on the EC website that I have a "P" in the grade column for the FCCA!!!! I guess I passed!!! Now on to the CPNE! GOD, I never thought I would get here when I started 3 years ago.

I mailed it back on a Friday and found out on the following Wednesday that I passed!!!!Not long at all!

Sent the FCCA back in last Friday, I am just waiting for my results!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats!!!!!!!!!! I won't be far behind you!!!

I registered for it online. All info given over the internet and confirmation emailed. I live about 10miles from New Orleans on the outskirts. Very close!!I know someone who took Lynn's and she recommended it!

Watiting for my CPNE date. Going to Lynn's workshop the first week in June in New Orleans. Think about signing up. What part of Louisiana you live in, I am outside of Metairie in Harahan.:)

I sent my FCCA in today! just waiting to see if I passed. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Hopefully, i will be on to get a CPNE date next!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations!!!!

Come to New Orleans!!! One of the biggest hospitals in town are "Letting GO" of all their aids/PCT/PCA's and hiring many LPN's and new RN Graduates as nurse protoges' (RN's without the ability to do all RN duties but have passed boards) and RN's and ...

Yes very easy. What you usually do is pay to take your test to Excelsior and then when approved(about 2-3 days) you then go online to Pearsonvue(the company that gives the computer test) schedule the test at a center near you and go take the test. Re...
