The session will provide information regarding how the programs prepare students to earn nursing credentials, which local healthcare facilities often hire graduates, and high-demand career opportunities in nursing. In addition, important information about application deadlines, when classes begin, and eligibility requirements will be shared. The event is free and open to the public.
