NMC offers NCLEX preparatory course
The Northern Marianas College’s Community Development Institute, through the CNMI Area Health Education Center, will be providing a course to help students prepare for the National Council Licensure Examination for registered nurses this summer.
To become a licensed nurse, candidates in the CNMI and in the U.S. mainland must first pass the NCLEX-RN Exam. To qualify for the course, students must have earned at least an associate degree in nursing. The deadline to enroll in this NCLEX-RN Exam Preparatory Course is 4pm, Friday, June 15, 2018.
The CNMI AHEC will subsidize this preparatory course for those who are residents of the CNMI (i.e. U.S. citizens and U.S. green card holders). Due to limited funding, the subsidy will be awarded on a first-come-first-serve basis. For those who do not qualify for a subsidy, the cost for the course is $408. Students must submit a copy of their highest nursing degree and a valid, government-issued photo ID (i.e. passport, driver’s license, mayor’s ID, etc.) for verification upon registration.
The duration of the preparatory courses will be from June 18 to June 22 and from July 2 to July 6 from 8am to 12pm for a total of 40 contact hours.
To register, students can visit the CNMI AHEC office in Building P at the NMC Saipan campus, or contact Queanna Sablan, CNMI AHEC Program Manager, by phone at (670) 237-6809 or by email at queanna.sablan@marianas.edu. (PR)
