Please note that the qualifications for our program differ from the qualifications necessary to apply for the LNCC examination.

In order to register, you will need to provide proof of an active RN license. Please have your license number and expiration date available when you register.

Acceptance into the program will be determined once registration is complete, (tuition paid and/or loan certified by our office) and the participant’s RN license status has been verified as active with the applicable state nursing board of residency.  Allow five business days from time of completed registration (by close of business on the fifth day, excluding Duke holidays) for such verification to be obtained and any subsequent online access to be granted.

Student will have six months to complete the course from the date of acceptance. Please note that the “date of acceptance” is considered the day on which the log in information is sent via email from our office to the student (by close of business within five business days of completed registration, excluding Duke holidays).

Once log in information is sent, the student can begin viewing lectures immediately; however, some materials, including a case study, will be sent to the student by mail, and the first assignment cannot be completed until those materials are received.

Refund Policy

There are no refunds for the Online Legal Nurse Consulting program and extensions will not be granted.  Students will have 6 months to complete the program. As this program is only 13-14 weeks in duration for the traditional classroom setting, a six-month window to complete the online program is deemed as sufficient for any student.  No exception to the six-month completion rule will be granted.
