Since opening its Fort Lauderdale campus in 2019, ������ College’s Associate Degree in Nursing program has graduated several classes of students now working in healthcare settings across Florida. These graduates are part of a growing community of ������ alumni serving in hospitals, long-term care facilities, and outpatient providers throughout the state.

In addition to ACEN accreditation, ������ College maintains institutional accreditation through the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC) and program approvals from the Florida Board of Nursing. Collectively, these credentials reinforce the College’s commitment to high academic standards.
