Nursing Program

Lakeland Community College Nursing degree training program (traditional or even LPN to RN track) grooms pupils to operate efficiently as entry-level registered nurses in many different health-care settings.

The training program is certified by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing and endorsed by the Ohio Board of Nursing.

A background check is needed before the NCLEX examination.
