NPC’s high quality, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Certificate of Applied Science option prepares you to take the Arizona LPN examination and excel in the exciting field of vocational nursing. Through hands-on experiences working in the classroom, clinicals and the community, you will receive the education you need to achieve your career goals in the healing profession.
Our holistically oriented faculty members are careful to provide you with planned experiences and individualized, up-to-date evidence-based instruction. Best of all, your nursing education costs a fraction of what you would pay for comparable nursing programs available elsewhere in Arizona.
At NPC you will:
- Be a part of nursing classes small enough that you can take advantage of personal tutoring and help from our highly experienced instructors.
- Pursue a nursing option that provides both hands-on labs and clinical experience every semester so you gain the practical real-world skills you need to succeed as a nurse.
- Pay the lowest tuition rate in the state, making our nursing program options the smart choice!
- Have the option to choose to continue your studies in NPC's nursing program for a second year to become a Registered Nurse by earning an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree.
Students wanting to earn a LPN certificate must apply to be admitted into NPC's Registered Nurse AAS degree program. BEFORE being accepted, you must complete certain prerequisite courses (see entry requirements below). Admission to NPC does NOT guarantee admission to the nursing program.
- For more information, please contact an NPC Academic Advisor. Also see the current NPC College Catalog and class schedule.
