The New Nurse Residency Training Program (NNRTP) is designed for newly and soon to be graduated RNs with an ASN, BSN or MSN degree.

Candidates selected for the NNRTP will be classified as a Clinical Nurse 1 and must have less than six months of RN employment experience at the time of the program start date. You will be expected to commit to at least two years of full-time employment on the hiring unit after the completion of training. All applicants must have a nursing degree conferred (either an associate's, bachelor's, or master's) no more than 18 months prior to the start of the program. Applicants must also have an active CA RN license four weeks prior to the start of the program.

All participants in the NNRTP are expected to be present and be actively engaged in all program events which include 40 hours/week for the first eight weeks. The following six weeks will include a time commitment of 36-40 hours/week of precepted shifts, didactic learning, and skill validation. Due to the rapid pace of the program, make-up sessions are not available and the candidate may be asked to defer their participation to the next available cohort offering.
