LPN (or LVN) programs offer flexible formats - hybrid theory, evening classes, and accelerated tracks - that let working nurses gain clinical skills and sit for the NCLEX-PN. They can boost job options and serve as a bridge to RN programs.
Diploma nursing programs remain a hands-on pathway to the RN credential. Graduates can sit for the NCLEX-RN and work in hospitals, clinics, insurance and legal roles, often pursuing RN-to-BSN pathways to broaden opportunities.
Southern California offers many pathways into nursing - from LPN/LVN and ADN programs to BSN and graduate degrees. Confirm state licensure rules and program accreditation before enrolling.
