ETI Technical College of Niles is excited to announce that 100% of 2024 Practical Nursing Diploma graduates passed the NCLEX on the first attempt and became Licensed Practical Nurses! Congratulations to our graduates! The LPN provides care under the direction of an RN, physician, or other legally recognized medical practitioner that is consistent with his/her scope of practice, education, and skills. On completion of the course requirements, the graduate receives a diploma and is prepared to take the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-PN), which leads to licensure as a License Practical Nurse. Graduates who become licensed as practical nurses may qualify for advanced placement through articulation plans at regional nursing programs should they choose to continue their education in nursing and become Registered Nurses.
