Five Master&#8217;s graduates passed their American Nurses Credentialing Center certification exams.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our nursing students are obviously bright, motivated, and thoughtful candidates,&#8221; said Lee-Ellen Kirkhorn, chair and professor of nursing. &#8220;Our Nursing Department faculty also deserve great credit for inspiring excellence and for creating a learning environment where students are coached and mentored to master complex information and to learn how to apply that content to their nursing practice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to Kirkhorn, IPFW students typically score well above the national average of those attempting the exam for the first time. That average tends to be around 84%.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;A perfect pass rate is one measure of a program&#8217;s excellence, and we are also proud to say that employers also rate IPFW nursing students as excellent,&#8221; says Kirkhorn. &#8220;IPFW nursing students are making an important impact and are outstanding practitioners.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In Indiana, the NCLEX-RN exam can be attempted up to four times. Candidates must wait at least 45 days before retaking it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/100203.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"IPFW float in the Three Rivers Festival Parade on July 11, 2009.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='60d61bb11242f8c8490fd48b6b7f497a' data-image-id=\"3246\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/100203.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/thumbs\/thumbs_100203.jpg\" data-title=\"IPFW float\" data-description=\"IPFW float in the Three Rivers Festival Parade on July 11, 2009.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"IPFW float\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"IPFW float\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"3246\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/thumbs\/thumbs_100203.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/assorted-photos\/dailydish.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"The Daily Dish screen capture from Fort Wayne, Indiana.
