Here's the lowdown.... Results are typically and very rarely mailed out before 4 weeks after the exam especially now due to the furloughs and the no overtime requirement from the Governor (of which no pay was given but time off instead). They use to...

I think what you are refering to is the self-serving rhetoric and garbage spewed by the California BRN under the former Terry administration. Just so you are aware the entire Board of Registered Nursing here in California were fired because essential...

The Board gives you six months to pay Pearson Vue to get an ATT and then Pearson gives you six months to take your test so you have a year if you do all the timelines at the last minute. However, if you don't pay Pearson within the 6 months the Boar...

I am on my friend's screen name again and worked for a state licensing board. You really need to contact the particular board you are interested in. Not slighting message boards as they are great help in deciding what to do and get help but if you ...

As a state employee, get your time in! An LVN with Corrections probably pays more than the outside/better benefits while getting in service time. More service time, better retirement, less chance of layoffs if they occur. Build your reputation so ...

Kennedy Review Center is on the eyes of a lot of LVN/LPN Boards as they do some advertising that is questionable. No distance learning is accepted in CA for the LVN for theory or clinical hours. The old trick was to get a license in another state a...

I'm babysitting for my friend again so on her computer. If you did the old ink cards, you probably have to do the livescan. I still work nearby so see my friends daily there. The livescans are a good deal enacted in emergency by the legislators af...

California does not have "registration", they have licensure. (unless this website is talking about a temporary?). You can obtain licensure in CA if you have passed after failing numerous times.

It's up to you if you want both licenses. My friends at the Board said it is taking approximately 10 weeks to evaluate a new file for the exam and about 3 weeks for endorsement. (depending on fingerprint clearance). If you are applying for new li...

If Kennedy Global is still doing distance/online theory courses and sending you to the Philippines for clinicals, it will not be accepted in California. They use to advertise that they were approved by the US Board of Nursing. There is NO US Board ...

was the above an email from the board of registered nursing? i can't believe they put the please note: exam failure........what that is telling you is that you passed and they can't formally send the results until doj/fbi clear your prints. i wish...

I'm on my friend's login. I use to work for BVNPT. 18 hours is not correct, I believe it's either 12 or 15 but definitely not 18. I don't know where he is getting the 18 hours as that is what we used in evaluations to gain months for qualifying an...

The national council has a watch on the LPN programs in the Philippines. If planning to get licensed in CA, be prepared to provide or your school provide a lot of documentation. Kennedy Global use to have a promotion on their website that said they...

LVN/LPN same type of license. CA and TX use to call it LVN however, I believe TX now uses the LPN so CA is the lone holdout.

No problem. I'm back here babysitting and on my friend's computer. Having worked there, I can tell you that they are swamped and having to take those 3 days off a month is making it worse. Just remember, no matter how frustrated you may be if call...

Just a note here: I have no idea about the other accrediations other than the accreditation by the Board of Nursing in CA. When attending an LVN school in CA, make sure they are accredited by the state board as there are some schools in CA saying t...

Hi Newtress, my friend who use to work there and is now in nursing school with me is here spending the night (studying) told me I shouldn't have brought that up in the endorsement area as it doesn't pertain to people coming to CA with a LPN license i...

The CA Boards send the applicant the eligibility letter that they are eligible to test and how to contact Pearson Vue to register. After the applicant sends the 200 to Pearson Vue, Pearson Vue sends a confirmation and you should recieve your ATT a f...

American River doesn't offer an LVN program, Sacramento City does though. Also, check out Twin Rivers (aka Grant Adult School) Unified school district as they have an LVN program. The more expensive ones are Kaplan and Western Career in Sacramento.

I asked my friend who use to work there and they said application-make sure ss# on it, signed and dated with fee photo Conviction form-make sure you check yes or no if any convictions and put your LPN information on number 9 si...

You're welcome. I posted that pretty late last night and reading it now, my answer is a little confusing to me and I wrote it! It's been awhile so I don't know if LA is a member of NURSYS or not. If they are, you pay them and the LVN Board gets you...

For the LVN endorsement you do not need a transcript unless you qualified through military with your original licensure state. They take the verification either from Nursys or your state board. To get a temporary for a LVN, they are not a walk in bo...
