Student nurse
A nursing student is a student in a post-secondary educational program that leads to certification and licensing to practice nursing. The title 'nursing student' usually applies to students enrolled in an RN or practical nurse program. A nursing student can be enrolled in a program that leads to a diploma, an associate degree or a Bachelor of Science in nursing.[1][2]
After the Nursing student becomes a Registered nurse, he or she is required to participate in continuing education to retain their licensing and registration.[3] By 2018, there will be a 22% job growth in the nursing field. It is the United States' fastest growing occupation.[4]
