Program Overview
Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) continuing education courses can be applied to your continuing competency profile. These are self-paced distance education courses. You can register at any time and you will have six months to complete each course. A certificate of completion is awarded for each course successfully completed.
The Advanced Education in Orthopaedics for LPNs program allows LPNs to expand their scope of practice by learning special orthopaedic procedures.
Custom-Designed Workshops
We will custom-design a workshop for groups of eight or more LPNs to meet your needs. Courses will be presented at NorQuest College, utilizing our labs and classrooms, or onsite in your community. Focus on skills and topics important to LPNs at your facility.
