History of the Nursing Program
Prince George's
Community College's (PGCC) Nursing Program began in 1967 with the first
class graduating 13 students in 1969. The program was approved by the
State Board of Nursing in 1969 and accredited by the National League of
Nursing in 1976. The LPN to RN Transition Program began the summer of
1995 with the PN program starting in 1996. PGCC has graduated over
4,500 students during these years.
At the outset, the program used three
outside agencies and two full-time faculty. Today, the program uses
over 35 outside agencies with 17 full-time faculty, one visiting
professor, approximately 25 adjunct faculty, and three health
technology computer technicians.
