The Associate of Science programs at FVI School of Nursing and Technology in Miramar and Miami, Florida are accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN), making it just one of a handful of nursing schools recognized as such in Miami-Dade/Broward Counties. We are very proud of this prestigious accomplishment. Being able to display the ACEN Accredited badge is an independent validation of the quality and success of our nursing program. 

In addition to the ACEN accreditation, the FVI School of Nursing and Technology has been institutionally accredited by the Council on Occupational Education (COE) since November 03, 2010. It is licensed by the State of Florida, Commission for Independent Education (CIE).

The Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) program curriculum includes classroom, lab simulation, and hands-on clinical training. Clinical experience is provided through direct care and interaction with patients in a clinical setting. Students are taught nursing skills and clinical judgment in a controlled environment using high-fidelity patient simulators. Students of our Miami nursing program or Miramar nursing program build confidence by practicing routine procedures in the skills lab and simulating crises in the simulation center.

FVI takes pride in our campuses, classrooms, and labs. We are set up for student success with up-to-date skills and simulation labs that mimic realistic hospital  settings and provide resources for optimal learning. We have invested in equipment for labs where students can conduct hands-on practice and simulations. 

FVI has an excellent track record of NCLEX passing rates, and we are dedicated to helping you prepare for the exam. NCLEX review courses are available to nursing students, and the exam prep starts at the beginning of the Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) program. 

A regular schedule of clinical judgment exercises and video tutorials test a student’s knowledge at every milestone within the program. By the time our students have completed the program and are ready to take the actual NCLEX-RN exam, it will feel like second nature, giving nursing graduates the best chance of passing on their first attempt!
