How can prospective nursing students use NLNAC with regard to their nursing education and career journey?
We at NLNAC think that nursing students are best served by attending an accredited nursing program. Accreditation is a “stamp of approval” that says two things about a program. First, the program has been reviewed against national standards of excellence and meets those standards. Second, the school is demonstrating its commitment to excellence by going through the voluntary accreditation process. This commitment is not only within the nursing department, but throughout the college. And finally, students who start their careers in an Associate Degree program will find it easier to advance their education to a baccalaureate or Master’s degree by graduating from an accredited program, since many higher degree programs require graduation from an accredited program as part of the admissions process.
