Hi does anyone know where to begin studying? Which books correspond to the concepts listed on the course calendar

For anyone in the CEP program... have you officially been accepted to CSUSB? I’ve sent all my transcripts over about 3 weeks ago and they still have not processed my application yet. I can’t register for the class nor accept my financial aid -.-

Oh and what the heck are passports ? Are they notes ? Lol I’m so confused. ?

Any alternates who are still waiting to hear back? I’m getting worried

Wait, I thought Angie/Maritza said they would collect the transcripts we've already sent to RCC for processing? Do you also happen to know when we're going to be meeting the HA course?

Hi all, did anyone happen to get any info on the rolling bags? Are we supposed to get them on our own or through RCC? If we do get them on our own, should we stick to specific colors (black & orange)? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

On the topic of rolling bags, which kit are we supposed to get from this store:

https://www.legendmedical.us/nursing-education

And if we don't have to get the rolling bag that they recommend, what supplies or materials would we need to have ready by day 1 of lab/clinical?

Also, does anyone know if they actually had a makeup day for ID badges? I wasn't there for intake day?

Order item # rcc328rn. That is what the item number was on my packing list. I would call them to confirm, 1-866-854-9040, and to make sure you can get it in time.

The instructors on the first day of boot camp said that there would be makeup opportunities for the ID badges on the first day of school,$10 each, it's recommended to get 2, you will also need to buy your orange rcc calculator and the CEP badge for your uniform, although Steve had a few badges at the front desk-$10 each, cash only.

HA for CSUSB is Fridays at 8 am to 1 pm, and yes they are supposed to be working with the RCC registrar to get the transcripts from RCC, that's what they said. If you have questions you may want to email?

Passports are a lot of different things... On your handouts they have to us at boot camp it will tell you. For example, for our Seminar with Shipway, on page 2 of the KSA, under Knowledge it lists the passpots, read chapters 1&13 of Taylor, read chapters 1 of Cherry, create notes re: objectives , etc. Then there were some other items related to the reading, then a prep-u assignment.I

Professor Dyogi separates her knowledge from her passports.

Our instructors said that all of this will be on canvas once they publish the classes.I hope that will be soon! I've emailed Ms. Shipway asking how soon will Canvas open, the copies of the powerpoints were very faint and hard to read.

Sorry for the typos in the previous post!

I'm an alternate and still waiting.. ? I hope we hear something soon.

Anyone know where the cEP patches go on the uniform?

Someone in my class was accepted as an alternate after the first day or so of class. It can happen!
