What Sets Nursing RN to BSN Program Apart

Accelerated Learning Courses Offered 100% Online

All classes are offered 100% online. The RN to BSN track utilizes an accelerated learning model to meet the needs of practicing nurses who have work, family or other commitments. Accelerated learning is a learning strategy in which students achieve educational outcomes equivalent to traditional courses in a more autonomous, student-centered course environment.

Most classes are offered in 7-week blocks. The program is structured to be completed in 22 months; however, the exact length of time for the program is dependent upon students’ goals and previous college experience. Customized scheduling is available to meet the needs of individual students.

Career Preparation that Meets Today’s Rigorous Healthcare Requirements

Hospitals and healthcare networks across the country are seeking to reach or maintain ANCC Magnet Recognition. As a result, we are seeing an increase in employers requiring the BSN. Additionally, many healthcare companies agree to pay for employees to return to school to earn their BSN, and your employer may provide financial assistance.

Preparation for Leadership Roles in the Field of Nursing

A BSN is required if you want to work in leadership or management roles at the nursing level. The RN to BSN track provides students with an opportunity to contribute to advanced critical thinking and professional autonomy in the delivery of holistic, competent nursing care.

You will build on your existing knowledge of nursing practice, preparing for both interdisciplinary collaboration and positions in management and leadership. You will be introduced to the importance of incorporating evidence-based findings as well as managing information to ensure quality outcomes and patient safety. You will also be challenged to consider diverse theories and perspectives to provide culturally competent care to a variety of populations.
