Nursing - Completion (LPN)

Completed your LPN and ready to take the next step? NMC’s associate degree in nursing completion program for LPNs allows those with current experience in acute or extended care or who have graduated within five years to complete the nursing course work in two semesters.

Career opportunities

More than half a million new RN jobs will be created between 2006-16. Overall job opportunities are expected to be excellent due to a nationwide nurse shortage and growth driven by a larger elderly population, technological advances in patient care, which permit a greater number of health problems to be treated, and by an increasing emphasis on preventive care.

Median annual earnings of registered nurses were $57,280 in May 2006. Some places nurses worked and the average earning

  • Employment services  - $64,260
  • General medical and surgical hospitals - 58,550
