Blackhawk Technical College
The Associate Degree Nursing program prepares nurses to function with the knowledge, skill and judgment of beginning staff nurses in a variety of health care settings. Students learn how to deliver quality patient care in a variety of health care settings. The four-semester program includes classroom, laboratory and clinical experiences. Students can choose to progress at a full-time pace or take classes on a part-time basis. Upon graduation, our nurses find jobs in acute care, long-term care or community health care settings. After completing the first two semesters of nursing courses, students can take the examination to become a licensed practical nurse (LPN). Nursing students take an examination (NCLEX) to become a registered nurse after completing all four semesters of nursing courses. Show More

PLEASE NOTE:

If there are fewer than eight enrollments in the training program, only the "Enrollments" number will be displayed; all other data is hidden in order to help protect the students' identities. The "Employment Outcomes" are calculated using information from Wisconsin's Unemployment Insurance Wage database. Most employers are required to report certain employment information to the State of Wisconsin, including quarterly wage information for their employees. Students whose information could not be verified in this database are excluded from these outcomes. If a "0" shows for any of these outcomes, it means that none of the students' information could be verified.

MAKING SENSE OF THE EMPLOYMENT OUTCOMES:

"Average quarterly wages" means the total wages earned in a three-month period by all students who completed the program ("completers"), divided by the total number of completers.

"Median quarterly wages" means all the completers' quarterly wages are placed in order from lowest to highest and then we identify the student's wages in the middle. This information is provided because averages can be greatly influenced by really high and low wage earners.

To estimate monthly wages, divide the quarterly wages by three.
