Practical Nursing Pathways

The Practical Nursing (11 months) and Practical Nursing Prep (22 months) programs are state-approved educational programs preparing students for their licensure examination for practical nurses. These programs consist of classroom, clinical, and laboratory components. Classroom and lab instruction is located at Vantage Career Center; however, clinical sites vary and can include local hospitals, community agencies, and long-term care facilities. The Ohio Board of Nursing governs this program for nursing education.
