The problem seems to be that as long as they see you or you say you performed 5-6 successfully IV insertions that was all I ever got. They never gave me a certificate.

I tried them, they said since I wasn't enrolled in their nursing program now I couldn't attend because it is part of the LPN cirriculum now. Funny thing is I graduated from Ivy Tech. Thanks for your response.
