South Texas College (STC) has made history as the first federally recognized nursing apprenticeship program, with all 10 graduates passing the NCLEX-RN on their first attempt, achieving a 100% pass rate. This inaugural cohort has completed 2,000 hours of paid training at DHR Health, bridging education and healthcare. The program, developed in partnership with various organizations, aims to address the nursing shortage in the Rio Grande Valley, projected to exceed 6,200 by 2030. STC plans to launch a second cohort, building on the success of the first and continuing to support community healthcare needs.
