University of Phoenix Nursing Degree
About University of Phoenix Nursing Degree Programs:
In many states there are ways to become an RN that do not involve a college degree. For many nurses however, there comes a time when a degree means the difference between a management or senior position and remaining on the floor. The University of Phoenix has a number of degree programs that help RNs move up the career ladder, as well as degrees for those starting out in nursing.
There are degree programs that take Licensed Practical Nurses and Licensed Vocational Nurses to a bachelors' degree in nursing. There is also an RN to bachelors' degree program. A BSN degree has helped many nurses move into administrative roles and out of the eight hour shifts on inpatient wards.
The University of Phoenix also offers some certificate programs that can be valuable to people positioned to take advantage of them. There is a course program for RNs who want to be certified as school nurses. There is also a certification program in health informatics, an increasingly important role since the HIPPA law was passed to protect the privacy of medical records.
Masters degree programs are available for RNs who want to be in health administration, or who want to become nurse practitioners. A masters in health education will open new career doors for the veteran nurse.
