Upon completion of the two-year diploma program, graduates are eligible to sit for the national licensing examination administered by the College of Licensed Practical Nurses of Alberta (CLPNA).

We offer flexibility with our program delivery, providing both onsite and blended formats. Returning second-year students benefit from extensive onsite lab participation, while first-year students engage in online theory classes supplemented with onsite sessions during the fall semester.

Given the high demand for our program, we encourage prospective students to consider starting their studies part-time by enrolling in university courses concurrently.
