Welcome to the Nursing Programs web page of Central Ohio Technical College.

An education in nursing provides students with extensive opportunities for employment.  The Nursing Program at COTC is designed to provide you with the necessary skills required for entry into the nursing profession.  Graduates not only join the workforce and become productive upon graduation, but many continue their education to earn advanced degrees. 

The U.S. Department of Labor states that job opportunities for RNs in all specialties are expected to be excellent. Employment of registered nurses is expected to grow much faster than average for all occupations through 2014, and, because the occupation is very large, many new jobs will result. In fact, registered nurses are projected to create the second largest number of new jobs among all occupations. Thousands of job openings also will result from the need to replace experienced nurses who leave the occupation, especially as the median age of the registered nurse population continues to rise.
