Option 2: LVN Pathway for 30-Unit option: LVNs that enter into the second year of the Nursing Program may opt for one of the three following: AA in Nursing, Non-Degree Option, or 30-Unit option. The 30-unit option is offered and accepted only in the state of California. Graduates of any of these options are eligible to take the National Council Licensing Examination (NCLEX) for Registered Nursing. However, unlike the AA graduate, whose eligibility to practice as a registered nurse is recognized by a process called endorsement, in all the United States, the licenses of graduates who choose the non-degree or 30-Unit Option may not be recognized in other states.

3 Option 3: Non-Degree The California Board of Registered Nursing does not require that applicants for licensing exam hold a degree or diploma. However, practice outside of California or advancement in education may be hampered without the degree. This option prepares an applicant to take the RN licensing examination without having to complete all AA degree general education requirements. In addition to the nursing program sequence, the following courses must be completed: Sciences Anatomy 1 Physiology 1 Microbiology 1 General Education English 1A CID: ENGL 100 Communication 1, 10, or 30 CID: COMM 110 or COMM 130 Psychology 1 CID 110 Sociology 1 CID: SOCI 110 CID = California Identification Number : Go to Assist.org, you to compare courses taken at other colleges for similar Chabot coursework. Match the CID course numbers. Clinical Skills Validation Students applying to Chabot College's Nursing Program on an advanced standing basis (with the exception of those who are eligible for placement in Nursing 55) shall be required to validate clinical competence commensurate with placement in the program through a clinical examination. Advanced Standing students must be enrolled in N84 (Prescriptive Clinical Skills) at the beginning of the semester prior to admission in order to practice and take skills exams. A booklet detailing specifics of this Chabot process (Advanced Standing Clinical Performance Guidelines) is available through the Nursing 84 Blackboard site. Students should contact skills the lab coordinator at (510) to review Nursing 84 orientation dates and times. The clinical examination consists of: a."math for Medications" written test which must be passed with a score of 90% or better maximum of 3 attempts; b. HIPPA/Standard Precautions validated yearly by Health Stream Modules; c. Therapeutic communications in a written examination passed with a score of 90%, maximum of 3 attempts; d. Skills Exam: a three (3) hour skills lab exam which must be passed with a score of 80%, maximum of 2 attempts. Theory Validation: Assessment Technology Institute (ATI) Tests for Advanced Standing Students The purpose of the testing package is to validate minimal theoretical core information and a minimal level of safe clinical behaviors considered by the nursing faculty to be pre-requisite for the course or program level in which the advanced standing applicant is to be placed.

4 LVN s will be required to take Fundamentals of Nursing, Nursing Care of Children, Maternal- Newborn Nursing, and Pharmacology assessment exams. Students must pass all ATI exams with a score of Level 2 or higher. There will be a one-time fee for all exams. Approximate cost is $600 for the set of tests. Access to materials will be E-Books. Testing is a proctored exam. Retesting will be included in the initial costs. The cost is non-refundable. Passing score for each exam is Level two(2). If the student scores lower than Level two(2), he/she will be required to take two (2) remediation exams and score 100% on each before being allowed to take the second ATI exam No more than two attempts may be made on the ATI exams. Passing score for each exam is Level two. If the student scores lower than Level two(2) he/she will be required to take two (2) non-proctored remediation exams and score 100% on each and turn in to N70 instructor before being allowed to take the second ATI exam. Those who are not successful will have one (1) opportunity to take and pass a theory only course [(N81 (Obstetrics), N82 (Pediatrics) and/or N64 (Pharmacology)]. Should a student not pass the theory only course, he/she will not be eligible for entry in the nursing program as an Advanced Standing Student. In this case, the student may apply as a beginning, generic student. Note: The Board of Registered Nursing requirements overrides the Chabot College requirements for graduation as stated in the Chabot College catalogue. Advanced Standing Order of Program Acceptance Ranking 1 5 Admission is based on space availability and will be ranked according to the following: 1. Waitlist from previous semester Student must have completed all ATI testing, all skills testing and all nursing program classes. Students who have been waitlisted from the previous semester will have to repeat all skills testing, as these tests are only valid for 6 months. Students who are seeking Spring Program Admission must have basic skills and ATI testing completed by November 15th; Final Skills exam by December 15 th. If space is limited, students will be ranked by November 15th. In December the list will be evaluated to determine if standards have been met and reranked if necessary.

You will receive a letter from the college s evaluator by the middle of Fall Semester each year advising you of coursework you will need to complete in order to receive the A.A. Degree in Nursing from Chabot College. Please review it and, if it is not correct, please make an appointment with a counselor. If you have not received the letter by December 1, please contact the Nursing Program Director. It is the ultimate responsibility of the student to be sure that all required courses have been taken in correct sequence. 3. At the end of Spring Semester, first year of the nursing program, you will receive a promotional notice advising you of General Education courses you will need to complete for the A.A. in Nursing. If there are errors in this promotional notice, please make an appointment with a counselor, or contact the Nursing Program Director. 4.
