Successful CLNC Consultants Say

Your course is absolutely wonderful and thorough. You give so many helpful tips and added information that is above and beyond what one would expect. You are obviously the expert in this field, and I feel so fortunate to have had you as a mentor. This is definitely the path I want to pursue, and I thank you for blazing the trail in this exciting field!

The Institute's educational programs are the only complete, relevant legal nurse consulting programs with the knowledge and wisdom from the experts that I can't get anywhere else.

Thank you for giving nurses the respect we deserve and the education we need to grow.

Elizabeth Lamorgese

Thank you for the quality program. I was mildly apprehensive, wondering if I would get my money's worth. You exceeded my hopes and expectations.

Sarah A. Young
RN, CLNC

I signed up for a college legal nurse consulant program. I soon discovered that it was preparing me to be a nurse-paralegal instead of providing me with the knowledge and skills necessary to become a legal nurse consultant. I withdrew and purchased the Institute's CLNC® Home-Study Certification Program. After the first day, there was no doubt in my mind that I had made the correct decision. I learned more pertinent information in a few days than I would have learned in months at the college program.

Vickie Milazzo Institute has changed my life and given me the opportunity to own my own business. You can be as successful as you want.

Cheryl C. Bockholt
RN

I checked into several paralegal-based programs. Luckily, I saw an ad for Vickie Milazzo Institute's program, which emphasized applying my nursing experience to the field of law. This was a perfect fit for me. As an advocate for RNs, Vickie warns us not to fall into the role of paralegal. Since nursing has given me so much, I strongly agree with her.

Vickie's expertise is next to none. What she brings to the table by far surpasses other legal nnurse consulting courses.
