    Hmmm. I think you are going to have to commit to more than 4 years to get your MSN. You can google RN to MSN programs and find those schools that offer this program and look into the program requirements.

  6. RN to BSN online

    In the early days of online education this was true. However it did not take long for employers to discover that online learners tend to be self-motivated, independent learners who are organized and utilize their time wisely. They are also pretty goo...
  7. Indiana State????

    I am in the nursing education tract, not FNP. My professors have all been PhD's, published, and have written textbooks. They have been accommodating, accessable and I am having fun while I learn. I took my BSN on line at Florida Hospital College of H...

  15. Discussing religion in the workplace

    I don't see anyone here uncomfortable discussing their religious beliefs. I think the original poster felt uncomfortable with HOW the instructor presented the material, "I'm a Baptist and proud of it!"... is inappropriate in THAT setting. How is that...

  17. Discussing religion in the workplace
