I have a relative who works at a Hospital and wants to know if there are any online programs for that I attend Nursing classes she doesn't want to go taht route .Is this posible that you can take Lpn classes online if your alreadt a CNA and if so who offers them? Do any of you think thats a good idea ? lets talk about it.

unfurtunently threres not many online schools to get ur lpn  besides to get ur lpn its best to attend a school due to the clinicals ull have to do!! theres like 100+ hrs that u have to complete to be able to take the nclex pretests!! and you have to pass the pretests to be eligable for the nclex tests!!

i have been on 2 different waiting list  4 years of waiting good luck cause im thinking of going straight to RNnow

I am a PCT and currently taking LPN online classes. I haven't started the nursing program but the school I am enrolled in is called Distance Minnesota. It is a 2 year program but you will have to do clinicals there (Minnesota) or North Dakota. They have 4 on campus LPN programs, they have 4 different community colleges but only one of their  LPN courses is online. It's a degree program but if you have taken pre-classes at another college you can transer them to the school. The school is accrediated and when you get your license you can get it changed in your state. The school is called Northland Community Tech College. They have other  LPN online programs in different states but not that not many. Here is a blog from an Rn who did the LPN program there and the RN program. If interested in this program make sure you check with your state boards , Call them and  make sure they will accept  a license from and accrediated online school, most likely if it is acrediated they will accept it,  also this program is excepted by the Minnesota State Boards.  Here are some links that can help you for those interested in this program. Even if you are not getting into the program right away you will have to take preclasses.  http://deleern.blogspot.com/2009/07/wow-distance-lpn-program-at-nctc.html      http://www.onlinenursingdegreeguide.org/nursing-degrees/whats-the-best-online-lpn-nursing-program/

University of Wisconsin offers a BSN accelerated program if you have a previous BS degree... I am not sure about LPN

Well guys first off im a LPN now it was hard but worth it my cousin finally found a website that not only does CNA to LPN but CNA to RN its the Minnay institutute you will have to take your NCLEX LVN in California but shes doing it i still recommend traditional classroom but they have a website for those of you who want to check it out

I am about to get my CNA certification..my plan is to go the LPN route which should take me a year.

I spent 10 yrs in banking and prior ran a family day care for 5 yrs.

I am excited to find this forum to communicate with others as I make these changes.

Hiya, According to a previous post by "leng", (a member of NL), it seems that you can take your exams for either CNA or LPN without further training.. she stated to contact the BON or the Health Dept... Best of luck... Teresa
