I graduated from CALC in 2019 following completion of the LPN program. The instructors were fantastic and I felt more than prepared to pass my NCLEX and work adeptly in my career field! Not only did the instructors support us in the classroom but they also supported us on a personal level as well, something you can only find in a small school environment. I have since began continuing on with my education endeavors in the nursing field and feel as though my success directly correlates to the education and support CALC gave me during my attendance!
