About

Education is continuously evolving and adapting, and for students looking for a career in healthcare, a nursing education from Lake Area Technical Institute provides the latest in educational advancements and opportunities. Established in 1965, LATI has been educating students to become successful nurses for over 50 years, and their student-focused approach to nursing education offers students the opportunity to excel in both theoretical and practical skills. The nursing program at LATI has been accredited by the National League for Nursing Accreditation Commission (NLNAC) since 1970 and is recognized as one of the premier nursing education programs in the country. Nursing students can choose from a variety of program options, including an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or a Practical Nursing Certificate (PN). Students who earn their ADN are eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) and can pursue a career in nursing as a Registered Nurse (RN). While the PN program is more focused on immediate employment as a nurse, graduates of the ADN program also have the option to further their studies and specialize in a certain area of nursing. The faculty at LATI is made up of highly qualified professionals who are committed to helping students reach their educational and professional goals. Instructors use state-of-the-art simulation labs to ensure that students are receiving the most up-to-date instruction and training. Additionally, the faculty and staff encourages students to get involved in the larger healthcare community by volunteering at local hospitals, participating in clinical experiences, and connecting with professional organizations. LATI’s emphasis on academic excellence, leadership training, and professional development give students the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the ever-changing field of healthcare. With its comprehensive curriculum and experienced faculty, LATI provides students with the perfect foundation to start their careers in nursing.
