Wiregrass Georgia Technical College President Dr. Tina K. Anderson is pleased to announce the Accreditation of the Associates of Science in Nursing program by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing.  The college began in 2012 when application for the ASN program through the Georgia Board of Nursing was made.  In January of 2014 the first ASN class began.  Recently, the program was recognized as #4 in the state among colleges.  The ranking was based on the students’ National Council Licensure Exam pass rates.
 
“The faculty have worked many long hours over the last couple of years preparing the ASN program for accreditation so I congratulate them on achieving this status, “shared DeAnnia Clements Dean of Allied Health at Wiregrass.  “Having an accredited program benefits students and employers because it means that the program has reached or exceeded established standards in nursing curriculum.  Students can be assured that they are getting a quality education and employers can be confident that the students they hire are capable and qualified.”
