Regional Agencies Contract Credit Course

The following courses listed are conducted at area hospitals and health agencies on a "contract" basis with the agency for their Nursing personnel. Registration and tuition payment is also conducted on site. Generally agencies are willing/able to admit students (non-employees) to the courses listed. However, one must contact the Agency Education Coordinator directly to obtain permission and complete registration/payment arrangements.

Students registering for these courses (non-GMU admitted students) must seek advising and program planning through the CHHS Office of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management. Call 703-993-1901 to schedule an appointment with the Assistant Dean for this activity.
