Platt College: Why LPN?


See what Platt College’s LPN students are saying about the program!


The students have spoken, and everyone agrees – the best part of learning at Platt College is the ability to get real-world, hands-on experience. Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) students at Platt learn a multitude of skills, from tracheal intubation to IV maintenance… even delivering a baby!

Platt College: Why Pharmacy Tech?

We’ve decided to post a couple of videos to show what makes Platt College’s Pharmacy Tech program great. Here’s the first one, discussing the hands-on experience Platt College Pharmacy Tech students get:


We don’t just prepare students to take a test – the lab work and mock pharmacy offered by our program allows students to get familiar with the way actual pharmacies work.

There is ever-increasing demand for trained technicians in various types of practice settings such as hospital, home health, hospice, long-term care, retail, specialty, nuclear, and compounding pharmacies.

Platt College: Why Culinary Arts?

Passionate about cooking? Think you want to build a career from it? It’s possible, you know – especially when you enroll in the Culinary or Pastry Arts Programs at Platt College.



Some people are just born to make great food – whether it begins with the smell of a loved one’s special recipe, or even through each delectable bite of your favorite dish from a restaurant you love to visit. For others, it’s all about reaping the rewards of the hard work and time spent making a fresh, home-cooked meal… or even the look on a friend’s face as they take that first savory bite. Sometimes the only “thank you” needed is for someone to try the dish you put so much effort into and say, “Wow, that’s delicious!”

Do any of those descriptions sound like you? If you said yes, you’ve come to the right place. Depending on the campus, Platt College offers programs in Pastry Arts, an Associate’s of Science in Culinary Arts, and even a Bachelor of Science in Restaurant Management. With a combination of theory and practical instruction, graduates of these programs will be armed with not only the knowledge to succeed, but hands-on experience to boot. Did we forget to mention graduate placement assistance?

If you love to cook and want to refine your skills, give us a call – we can set you up with details about the programs that interest you, and even a tour!

Platt College: Great Education, Great Staff

We’ve talked about it before, and we’d like to bring it up again: we have great instructors.


Need to review the material? Ask your instructor.
Need to practice a technique? Ask your instructor.
Need someone to talk to? Ask your instructor.

Have you ever had someone try to explain to you how to do something over the phone? Did it work as well as it would have if that person had been standing right next to you as you did it? Probably not, right? That’s the difference between Platt College and a more traditional classroom setting. We don’t just tell you how to do it – we show you, as well.

Platt College has been fortunate enough to have some of the best, most supportive instructors around. Not only do they understand the material they’re teaching, they also have a wealth of experience in their respective fields. Because of this, Platt College instructors can provide you with more than just knowledge. In addition to theory, our instructors provide students with real-world application of the skills they’re learning.

Did we forget to mention the opportunity for networking? Because our instructors have years of experience, that means they are also aware of employers in their fields. As the saying goes, sometimes it’s about who you know. A hot tip or a recommendation from an instructor can be the final step you need to land your first job in your new career.

Why wait? Call one of our admissions offices today.
