Allied Health Career Training is excited to announce our Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) program which has been approved by the Kansas Board of Nursing. Please read the information on this page to answer questions about requirements for the program and financial information.

Please note:

  • Submitting an application does not guarantee a spot in the program. Each LPN cohort has limited spots available. Applications will be reviewed and applicants notified of status prior to the program start date.

  • We are not able to accept Federal student financial aid including Pell Grants or FAFSA.

  • Allied understands our students have busy lives, and we have creatively structured our LPN program with that in mind.

    This comprehensive, 10-month hybrid program program is designed for focused and disciplined adults. There are two to three days each week of in-house learning and 10 to 16 hours each week of online coursework completed at home.

    Critical judgment skills are taught through various hands-on training methods including case studies, virtual reality goggles, simulation labs, and other techniques.

    Energetic and knowledgeable instructors with a passion for nursing and teaching will guide you through the strenuous process of becoming a Licensed Nurse.
