    If you want to get your RN within 2 years, there is the tech school for ADN (Associate Degree Nurse) students, which is so closer to RN. ADN is called “the RN aide”, but ADN is her own responsibility when RN is absent. I thinkhttp://www.technical-schools-guide.com/f…

    I was in the army and attended “Tech school” LPN duties.
    RN is a professional job – the only way is Officer
    school.

    Well I would first like to salute you :) Thank you for joining the armed services and wanting to protect our country! As for training for RN, the schools that offer that are either community colleges or universities. Technical schools generally offer the LPN (licensed practical nurse) as opposed to the RN where the training lasts about a year as well as (hands-on) clinical fieldwork experience.
    If interested in lpn, please opt for the county vo-tech school or community college as opposed to those private $$ career schools as they are basically a racket ;)
    For general career info: http://www.bls.gov/oco and can search ‘registered nurses’, ‘licensed practical nurses’ or such.
    US colleges: http://www.utexas.edu/world/univ
    Please also steer clear of those online, for-profit schools such as penn foster, stratford career, university of phoenix, strayer, devry, kaplan, capella, keiser and others as they are merely out to ‘make a profit’: http://www.capellauniversitysucks.ushttp://www.ripoffreport.com and can type into search.
    Bless you and wishing you the best of luck in all of your endeavors!
