How Our Program Works → Your Path to LVN Success

At California Preparatory College, our program is open to all individuals interested in pursuing a Pharmacology certificate, providing a valuable opportunity to gain specialized knowledge in healthcare. However, for those aiming to obtain Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) certification by leveraging their Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) experience, it is important to note that specific requirements must be met.

Through the CA BVNPT Method #5, CNA experience can be utilized toward meeting these criteria, enabling a streamlined transition to becoming an LVN.

We not only guide you through the necessary steps to achieve your educational and career goals, but we also provide comprehensive academic support to ensure your success. Our dedicated instructors offer personalized guidance, structured coursework, and NCLEX-PN review sessions to help you prepare with confidence. From in-depth pharmacology training to test-taking strategies, we equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to pass the NCLEX-PN exam and advance in your nursing career.
