Ten students from Northwest State Community College\u2019s practical nursing program celebrated completion of the program recently during a special pinning ceremony. Graduates are eligible to take the National Council Licensure Exam for Practical Nursing and upon successful completion, enter directly into the workforce. After obtaining work experience, they may continue their education and pursue a degree in registered nursing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the ceremony, the College also recognized eleven students from the College\u2019s phlebotomy technician certificate program. The phlebotomy program leads to entry-level positions in the health care field, and students earning this certificate may also choose to continue their education for an associate degree in medical assisting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
