Individuals who would like to work as a Wisconsin Registered Nurse (RN), and who do not have any type of formal nursing background, must complete a state-accredited WI RN program.

Every state is required to maintain and approve official registered nurse (RN) educational and training programs. The Wisconsin Board of Nursing, which is under the umbrella of the Department of Regulation and Licensing, is the organization responsible for sanctioning those Wisconsin RN programs found throughout the state.

This article shows students where they can locate state-approved RN Wisconsin programs, and describes the different requirements for licensure.
