[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on the classification of "nurse." Aides, LPNs (Licensed Practical Nurses) generally only require an associate's degree. I consider those jobs blue collar. Registered nurses with a BA/BS or higher are white collar. [/quote] Not true at all. Aides are usually certifications.training programs that are often <3 months, LPN programs can be 9 months-1 year long and RNs come in a variety of degrees including Associates and Bachelors. Both associates and bachelors educated nurses take the same licensing exam and have the same staff RN jobs (although the bachelor's degreed nurses can move into management positions). -I am an RN at INOVA[/quote]
