A new agreement between Chippewa Valley Technical College and the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire facilitates credit transfers from CVTC to UW-Eau Claire, allowing CVTC graduates of the Nursing-Associate Degree program to complete their BSN degree with as few as 35 additional credits from UW-Eau Claire. With an associate degree in nursing from CVTC, a student can earn a registered nurse (RN) license by passing the board exam. While some transfer to UW-Eau Claire or another university to complete a BSN immediately, others begin working as nurses and complete their BSN part-time. The agreement specifies which CVTC courses a student should take to meet specific UW-Eau Claire requirements, combining online courses with on-campus courses. This includes not only nursing program classes, but many general education classes required as part of a bachelor’s degree.
