The Vocational Nursing (VN) program prepares students with entry-level skills and knowledge to practice in the role of a licensed vocational nurse in a variety of health care settings. Graduates receive a certificate of completion and are prepared to successfully complete the NCLEX-PN (state licensing examination) to obtain licensure as a Licensed Vocational Nurse in the state of California. The program consists of one calendar year of nursing course work after completion of program prerequisite courses and selection into the program.

Employment opportunities are excellent for licensed vocational nurses both locally and in the state. Graduates are actively recruited and employed by local health care facilities with starting salaries of $13-15 per hour.
