Valencia CC or Seminole CC for the Orlando area. Lakeland CC is a good choice as well. Community college are a great choice for the LPN but maybe unnecessary (Price is a little high and need some planning..if you want to becom a RN this is the best transition). Some of the career oriented school (technical/Vocational) are a good choice as well like for Orlando Tech and Winterpark Tech not as expensive. I'm sure there is one in your area. (The price is great but all day time courses). The main goal is to be a State certified LPN. If at the end of the program you're eligible to test thats the program for you. Private schools (are flexible) like Kieser,FMU, Americare(Not sure of the name) could be good as well. I'm not sure if you can test after the completion of the program or if more requirements are needed. (The price is over the top, but a flexible schedule and tution loans) As for employment in a hospital, you must have your LPN licensed from florida. Which school you when to doesnt matter as much...except for if you had a intership there(at the Hosp or job site)..it may weigh more.. My top choice would be Valenciacc.edu because I went there and they're flexible, evening courses. I am thinking about going back for an RN or Rad Tech degree.
