Nursing - Practical, Certificate of Achievement
Northwestern Michigan College’s Practical Nursing (PN) program is a certificate program that consists of two semesters of nursing classes after prerequisites are met. It is designed to give the student the knowledge and skills which will certify them to be eligible to take the National Council Licensure Exam (NCLEX-PN). After successfully completing the NCLEX-PN exam, graduates are able to enter the workforce in various healthcare settings. The program is approved by the Michigan Board of Nursing and accredited through the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN). Licensed Practical Nurses often work in offices, long-term care, and home health care facilities.
