CSP Global's Accelerated Nursing Program

America needs caring, confident nurses now more than ever, and the positive prospects of a nursing career can make the profession an ideal match for many. From different practice areas to geographic flexibility, you have the ability to turn nursing into a rewarding and fulfilling career. Fortunately, it’s possible to enter this life-saving profession in as few as 16 months with CSP Global’s Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) program. This innovative, accelerated nursing program blends interactive, online coursework with relevant, experiential learning in skills labs and clinical learning environments, so you graduate ready to take the NCLEX-RN® and destined to touch countless lives.

The ABSN program, like nursing, isn’t for everyone, though. For the CSP Global accelerated nursing program, you must have at least 54 non-nursing college credits (including designated prerequisites and general education coursework) while meeting academic requirements. You should also be prepared for a rigorous and intensive workload as an ABSN student, which is necessary to learn the skills and practical knowledge you’ll need over such an accelerated timeframe.

The CSP Global accelerated nursing program offers:

  • A comprehensive curriculum featuring online courses, well-equipped skills labs, and clinical learning experiences
  • An emphasis on evidence-based care that serves the needs of culturally diverse populations
  • ABSN learning sites located in both St. Paul, Minnesota, and Portland, Oregon
  • An accredited education that will prepare you to successfully sit for the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN®) upon completion of the BSN degree
