All CNM nursing courses emphasize a holistic approach that encourages students to embrace the concepts of clear communication, critical thinking and compassion when caring for patients. The Nursing program curriculum includes classroom, laboratory, and supervised clinical instruction that combines an essential set of arts and sciences classes with the nursing courses.

CNM offers the common New Mexico Nursing Education Consortium (NMNEC) curriculum.

Graduates of the Associate of Applied Science in Nursing (AASN) program meet the requirements set by the New Mexico State Board of Nursing to take the NCLEX-RN licensing examination. Specific terms of licensure can be obtained through the New Mexico Board of Nursing.

This program is a participating member in the New Mexico Nursing Education Consortium (NMNEC).
