Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Industry Certificate
The Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Industry Certificate creates a pathway for registered nurses (RN), who were formerly licensed practical nurses (LPN), to earn a Bachelor of Science in nursing (BSN). With this new certificate, students who graduated with a diploma from a practical nursing (PN) program, and passed the licensing exam, are awarded 16 college credits.
At BGSU we recognize the hard work that students put into their education and career. We honor these nurses by providing college credit for passing the NCLEX-PN.
