Concordia offers degree program in Sheboygan

Concordia offers nurse degree program in Sheboygan - The Business Journal of Milwaukee:

Concordia University is expanding its nursing bachelor’s degree program to Sheboygan beginning in January.

University officials hope to mirror the program started at Waukesha Memorial Hospital in May that gives registered nurses with associate degrees or nursing certificates a chance to earn their bachelor’s degree.

“What has prompted us to do this is people are interested in the program, but it is more economically feasible for them to stay closer to home,” said Dr. Carol Lueders Bolwerk, program director.

Concordia has offered a bachelor’s degree completion program since 1989 at its Mequon campus and expanded it to ProHealth Care in May after the Waukesha-based hospital system issued a request for proposals for an on-site bachelor’s degree completion program.
