Practical Nursing
The Practical Nursing (PN) Program at South Arkansas College is designed to prepare the graduate for an entry level nursing career in a variety of health care environments..
Successful graduates will earn a Technical Certificate (TC) in Practical Nursing from the college and will be eligible to apply to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN) and apply for licensure through the Arkansas State Board of Nursing, which allows the individual to practice as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN).
