want to know more about of University of the West England, online/distance learning of Nursing?

We Answered:

I would check the school to see if it is regionally accredited one such source is the department of education.Their website address is
http://www.ope.ed.gov/accreditation/
also a good indicator that a school is a diploma mill (a website or business holding itself out to be a school or place of higher learning when in fact it just gives degrees usually to people who pay fees to obtain one . when the person find out that their degree is not valid the diploma mill usually has shut down by then
To check to see if the school is internationally accredited :
http://www.detc.org/theaccrediting.html
if the school is not listed,I would be very weary about attending this school

What's the difference between earning a nursing degree at a university VS. earning a nursing degree online?

We Answered:

As both a college instructor who's taught on campus and online, and the author of a new job search book that came out in October, let me answer your question.

Nursing is a very hands-on profession where you are dealing with people's lives. In other words, if you don't know what you are doing, you could wind-up killing somebody!

Because of this, no patient would feel comfortable with a nurse whose only training was done online without ever stepping foot in a classroom. And no hospital or medical facility would feel comfortable with a nurse who was simply trained online and that's it. Why? Because the risk of that nurse hurting somebody is much greater! And as a direct result of this, malpractice insurance would be much higher! And the potential of our being sued is vastly increased!

Anyone has experience taking an online nursing degree class at the University of phoenix?

We Answered:

University of Phoenix offers nursing and many other degree programs at campus locations in many states, and you may be eligible to be accepted for one of those programs. Online nursing programs are only available for individuals who already possess a valid license as either a Practical Nurse or Registered Nurse however.

There are no legitimate online nursing degree programs for those who aren't already nurses primarily due to the reasons you stated above, nursing programs are a blend of academic, laboratory, and hands on clinical training.

As far as University of Phoenix goes, however, it is one of the pioneers of accredited distance education programs, and long before there was such as thing as online education, UoP worked in conjunction with numerous hospitals offering advanced nursing educational programs and classes at the hospital so nurses could earn an advanced nursing degree without sacrificing their job in the process.

They have also provided advanced distance and on-site educational opportunities for members of the armed forces and Dept. of Veteran's Affairs for many years, so a nursing degree from University of Phoenix is widely recognized and accepted by hospitals, other health care employers, and the US Government.

According to their web site they have several campus locations in Washington: http://www.phoenix.edu/campus_locations.…

Best wishes for a future nursing career!
