History was made: 1st class of BSNs graduate from BTC
History was made on December 18, 2022 as the first students graduated from the online RN to BSN Completion program. This is the first online program BTC has offered and the first Bachelor degree level program!
Six RN to BSN Completion students finished the one-year Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree program. These students all graduated from the Professional Nursing (RN) program at BTC and earned their RN licenses before deciding to pursue the next level in their nursing education to earn their BSN. You don’t have to be a BTC alumni to apply for this program, but there are perks if you are!
During their three semesters in the program, students worked hard to level-up their skills to gain a deeper understanding for their patients. Their online classes included: RN Collaborative Healthcare, RN Ethics and Health Policy, Foundations in Nursing Research, RN Community Health Nursing, Public Speaking, Statistics for Healthcare and more. Classes, testing, and virtual clinical work were completed entirely online. To learn about the ShadowHealth virtual clinical experience students used during the program, visit our RN to BSN Completion page.
