For more than 30 years, the Air Force Nurse Corps has relied on a transitional program to prepare novice nurses for active duty service in the United States Air Force. Our current model, the Nurse Transition Program (NTP), eases the transition of inexperienced active duty nurses from novice to competent practitioners and officers. This is accomplished by providing a strong foundation of nursing skills and officership.
The U.S. Air Force Nurse Transition Program offers BSN graduates the opportunity to complete a structured program designed to facilitate the transition form student to professional nurse. It offers clinical tracks for Medical-Surgical. The NTP program is 10 weeks in length, includes classroom training and clinical rotations working alongside your preceptor – an experienced Air Force nurse.
