The Lawson State Community College Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Program was ranked #1 by practicalnursing.org for 2021 after 16 LPN programs from across the state were analyzed.
The ranking was based on the passage rates of the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN exam) which is administered by individual State Boards of Nursing in which Lawson State produced an overall score of 100.00.
“The designation of this is important because out of LPN programs approved by the Alabama Board of Nursing, the Lawson State Community College, Practical Nursing Program is number one,” said the college in a statement. “This is/was a collective effort by the faculty, staff and students to ‘Trust the Process.’ We are very proud of this accomplishment, and much continued success to every student who comes through a LSCC nursing program.”
