Union County College has one of the largest, if not the largest, full-time
ESL programs in the United States.  Graduates of our program often enter the
nursing program at UCC that is affiliated with local hospitals.  Many ESL
graduates work in the field while they study.  We also have reciprocal
agreements with several 4-year colleges (Montclair U, Rutgers U, and Kean U.
to name three) for those who wish to upgrade to R.N. or Nurse Practitioner.
Visit UCC's website for more information.

I am interested in learning about programs that have been developed to help
immigrants and refugees re-establish themselves professionally, getting
appropriate credentials and so on. I am especially interested in any
programs for nurses.  Any suggestions for where I might start looking?
