LOS ANGELES, June 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- At California Career College, you'll find a nursing school in the San Fernando Valley that is focused on providing every student with the medical knowledge and abilities needed to become effective, marketable nurses. The concepts and skills they cover include everything from basic patient care and communication with doctors to IV therapy certification – a highly sought credential among healthcare employers. When seeking an LVN program, Los Angeles residents have a number of options to consider, but for those who are focused on success in a highly competitive job market, there is no better option than CCC.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects approximately 19% growth in the field of nursing over the next 10 years – substantially faster than the average for all occupations. This is due in large part to the increasing healthcare demands of the "baby boomer" age group. As the famously large demographic group enters its senior years, more nurses will be needed to educate and take care of patients with an enormous range of chronic conditions including arthritis, obesity, diabetes, and dementia.

The stability and opportunities found in the healthcare field for nurses are particularly welcome considering the difficulties so many young people have had finding good jobs in recent years. The New York Times reports that between 2000 and 2012, the job market was so challenging for recent graduates that many have been forced to take positions far below their degree level, including low-wage and part time work. By 2012, about 44% of college graduates were underemployed. Even for nurses, competition can often be intense, which is why it is so important to utilize the programs at California Career College.

The faculty at this outstanding vocational school consists of experienced teachers, instructors and nurses with years of experience in their respective fields, and the curriculum at CCC is built on career-centric objectives cultivated through interviews with local employers. This ensures that nursing students receive valuable training on the skills they'll actually need to stand apart from the competition and thrive in the healthcare field for years to come.

Too often, healthcare employers complain of a large gap between the knowledge that is needed for their nurses, and the skill sets of most job candidates. Yet, at CCC, students receive hands-on training in many of the most important facets of nursing, often before their first clinical rotations, giving their graduates a solid foundation of knowledge and a competitive edge.

While many analysts tell us the economy is getting better, the fact remains that finding lucrative work while still making a positive difference in people's lives will always be a challenge. At California Career College, you'll get the chance to learn how to garner the skills needed to make a difference in the lives of others while still providing a better life for yourself and your loved ones – a rare privilege that will give you a legitimate reason to take pride in the work you do throughout your career.
