BLOOMINGTON—Ivy Tech Community College Bloomington is accepting applicants for the evening Transition to ASN (RN) program that starts on Aug. 24. The transition program is for licensed practical nurses, paramedics, medical assistants (CMA-AAMA), and military medics who want to train for careers as registered nurses.
This is the first evening nursing program offered at Ivy Tech statewide and was launched by the Bloomington campus last year to address the workforce need in the region and help more students become nurses in their own communities.
“By offering an evening nursing training program, we have expanded our capability at Ivy Tech Bloomington to train more nurses and help close the workforce gap in the state,” Chancellor Erik Coyne, Ivy Tech Bloomington said. “Students need and want flexibility, and we’ve heard for years that students want an evening training option that works for their busy schedules.”
Ivy Tech Bloomington recently expanded, upgraded, and re-dedicated its Lee J. Marchant School of Nursing on main campus, in the Connie and Steve Ferguson Academic Building.
Applications for the evening nursing Transition to ASN (RN) program are due by May 15.
