What are all the different Nursing Specializations/Courses?

[fmiller007]

Everytime I take a gander at a post in this forum, every post is filled with acronyms:

ALS

BLS

ACLS

etc

etc

etc

And while a simple google search reveals what each one is-- where can I find more information on these different specialization/courses, and which one would be the most prospective to me as a future nurse.

Sorry-- I just got into the Nursing program at my school, and dont know much.

FOUND IT!:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nursing_credentials_and_certifications

Yes-- I know it is Wikipedia, but at least the list is EXTREMELY comprehensive.

One of the most comprehensive I've seen online anywhere.
