Complete ACTC’s LPN program in just 11 months

April 22, 2018

 

     The Practical Nursing program at ACTC is now accepting applications for the fall semester 2018 class. May 11 is the application deadline.
     "Practical Nursing is a good program for people from ages 18 to 50 plus who want a healthcare career in less that a year of college coursework," said Terri Ratliff, ACTC associate professor and program coordinator.
     The diploma program is approved by the Kentucky Board of Nursing, and graduates are eligible to take the National Council of Licensing Practical Nursing examination. Once licensed, LPNs can find employment in hospitals, nursing homes, convalescent care centers, medical offices and health care agencies.
     Practical Nursing is a selective admission program, and prospective students need to complete an application for the program, an ACTC application and a preadmission advising conference.
To meet the preadmission advising conference requirement, access the link on the website. View the conference, print and sign the certificate of completion, and submit the certificate with your application.
     Applications and the conference link are online at ashland.kctcs.edu under Academics, Programs of Study, Licensed Practical Nursing. Applications can be turned in at the admissions office or emailed to AS_admissions@kctcs.edu.
