"We are proud of these recent events as we move down the path of supporting the community with this new program," said NGTC President Dr. Gail Thaxton. "There is a tremendous need for additional nurses and we know our program will make a real difference for students, healthcare employers, and residents."
The ASN program offers graduates a direct path to becoming a Registered Nurse, projected to be one of the two occupations with the highest growth rate in Georgia and among occupations with the most annual openings in North Georgia.
Entry into the fall 2013 program was handled through a competitive process and the first 30 students have been sent letters of acceptance.
