Educational Partners

Whether you're starting your career in nursing or ready to take it to the next level, Nursing Connect gives you the resources you need to find a quality education at a value that makes sense to you. Premier Health's educational partners provide onsite college fairs, and programs to meet your career development needs. Pre-licensure RN, RN to BSN, certificate, and graduate programs are offered by the partners. All of the colleges and universities listed below offer tuition remission, meaning they will bill your tuition fees to Premier Health. Some offer reduced tuition, scholarships and grants to qualifying students. Talk to your college or university representative to find out what is offered and if you are eligible.
