Assistant Dean of Nursing

Welcome to the website for the Assistant Dean of Nursing Education. CCRI offers the only public Associate Degree and Practical Nursing Programs in Rhode Island. In addition, the CCRI Nursing program is one of the largest nursing education programs in New England.

Our graduates are major providers of direct care in the region, as well as throughout the nation, due to the high quality education our students receive and consistent strong performance on licensing exams.

This is an exciting and challenging time within the profession of nursing and I invite you to investigate our programs. We utilize state of the art technology to facilitate learning, incorporate best practices into our curriculum, employ a large full-time expert faculty and are partnered with high quality clinical settings that assist in facilitating application of theoretical knowledge.

I encourage you to attend one of the many informational sessions offered by the CCRI Office of Enrollment Services to familiarize yourself with the requirements for application to the Nursing program. The faculty and I look forward to assisting you in achieving your academic and personal goals.

Sincerely,
Jeanne S. McColl, MSN, RN, CNE
