Northampton Community College is providing several health and safety training opportunities this July and August for health care and general industry workers.

This first is a virtual information session on July 17 at 6 p.m., through Zoom, to go over information regarding NCC’s Nursing Reactivation and Review Programs to help RNs and LPNs get back into the field.

NCC’s LPN and RN reactivation programs are designed for nurses who want to reinstate their licenses, international nurses looking to practice in Pennsylvania and nurses who have been away from practice and want to update their skill set.

The programs include classroom and clinical labs. Practice Review programs are designed for graduate nurses preparing for the NCLEX or for nurses to review basic nursing knowledge and incorporate information on more recent technological advancements.

To register for the information session, visit www.northampton.edu/nursingce.

The programs begin Aug. 28. The location for elements within the programs will vary from distance learning, on-ground portions at the Fowler Family Southside Center in Bethlehem, and/or off-site locations.

For questions, please call 610-332-6585.
