Overview
This Bachelor of Nursing - After Degree program is designed for students who already hold an approved undergraduate degree and prepares them to write the Canadian licensure exam for Registered Nurse certification. It develops clinical decision-making, diagnostic reasoning, interpersonal skills, leadership behaviours, and the technical knowledge required for nursing practice. The program runs continuously over 24 months with a single Fall intake. Newly admitted students begin by attending courses at Lethbridge Polytechnic for the first two semesters before transitioning to the University of Lethbridge for the remaining coursework, a collaborative delivery model between the two institutions. It suits degree holders looking to change career into nursing, and can lead to roles such as Registered Nurse, mental health nurse, community health nurse, public health nurse, emergency room nurse or occupational health nurse.
