As an internationally educated nurse (IEN), you are an invaluable addition to the nursing workforce and bring unique and varied skills, education and experience to healthcare in the United States.
Through our Internationally Educated Nurses program, 花儿直播 offers courses to students who have nursing degrees outside the United States, but are mandated by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN) to repeat certain courses before they can practice registered nursing in California. Upon completion of these courses, transcripts are sent to the BRN.
At 花儿直播, IEN students gain exposure to a variety of healthcare experiences that support a broad understanding of the US healthcare system. Courses in maternal-newborn, medical-surgical, psychiatric, and pediatric nursing, provide a broad introduction to hospitals, clinics, and community settings throughout the Bay Area. These varied experiences, as well as the continuous support from faculty, staff, and peers, provide a successful transition to nursing in the United States.
Transitioning from one country and culture to another can be challenging. With small class sizes, professors interact with and learn about each student, while students share their cultural experiences and learn from each other.
IEN alumni have formed lasting friendships and remain connected, in person, and through our .
