Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurse Training

The Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurse Training certificate program at Unitek College is a one-to-two-year credential offered by this private for-profit institution located in Hayward, CA. The program falls within the practical nursing field (CIP 51.3901) and prepares students for entry-level nursing roles as licensed practical or vocational nurses working under the supervision of registered nurses and physicians.

Students in the LPN/LVN program can expect a curriculum that combines classroom instruction in anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and nursing fundamentals with hands-on clinical training in patient care settings.
