GBC Nursing Program Does it Again!
Please join GBC in congratulating the nursing program faculty and staff on another year of 100% pass rates. All students have successfully taken and passed the NCLEX! Great Basin College sets the standard and the pace as the most successful nursing program on preparing students to test and pass NCLEX. This year the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) who administers NCLEX used a Next Generation testing style that has a focus on clinical judgement and decision making abilities through the use of innovative testing items. The Nursing program has been preparing for this for the past two years with curriculum mapping and modifications to the curriculum to make sure students would be prepared to take the Next Gen NCLEX. The ability of the nursing program to sustain pass rates at 100% is very impressive using synchronized learning with 4 locations!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Keep up the great work!
