Accelerated Nursing Program’s Online Coursework
The accelerated nursing program’s online coursework helps fast-track your BSN education while providing the same rigorous curriculum expected from an on-campus format. Time is valuable for ABSN students, and online courses offer the flexibility to allow them to complete coursework when and where it’s most convenient, provided they meet deadlines.

Our accelerated nursing program’s online courses promote critical thinking as they challenge you to synthesize and apply core nursing concepts to clinical practice. You will engage with an e-learning platform for most of your coursework, which allows you to:
- Listen to and read lecture material.
- Participate in simulated learning activities.
- Complete and upload course assignments.
- Interact with other students via a discussion forum.
- Join scheduled chat sessions with instructors.
- Stay organized via the calendar management function.
Online courses establish the core nursing building blocks needed to excel in simulation labs and clinical rotations so you can confidently enter each stage of your education.
Interactive Online Learning
The Northeastern ABSN program’s online coursework is housed on an interactive e-learning platform that creates an engaging learning environment for students. The online accelerated nursing coursework utilizes aural and visual-based lectures, simulated learning, and discussion forums designed to help you retain course information better.
This provides an experience not available in a standard textbook. For example, you can watch simulations of how long-term hypertension impacts the body and can return to previous lectures as needed.
How Online Learning Keeps You Engaged
The accelerated nursing program’s online coursework keeps students engaged by utilizing:
- Images and graphical representations of information.
- Recorded lectures that students can access as often as necessary to replay critical portions.
- Task-based simulations and 3-D graphics.
- Discussion forums that connect students with their cohort and instructors.
Tips for Online Learning
While an online accelerated nursing education affords you a greater flexibility, it should be approached with the same dedication and self-discipline as a traditional on-campus program.
To help you successfully navigate our online nursing curriculum, we offer these tips:
- Connect with your instructors early and often to build rapport and understand expectations.
- Learn when your instructors have scheduled office hours, and prepare accordingly.
- Find out how quickly you can expect an email response from your instructors.
- Dedicate routine time blocks for online coursework so you stay on track.
- Leverage your online calendar to manage assignment deadlines, test dates, and clinical hours.
Consistency is key to the successful completion of online coursework. You must develop a routine and find a comfortable, distraction-free location to study and focus on your education.

Real-World Career Preparation
Because nursing is a hands-on career, our accredited ABSN program is not 100% online. It also comprises hands-on learning and clinical practice, so students develop the clinical judgment and skills needed to become registered nurses. Through this blended learning model, you can expect to graduate with the confidence to sit for the NCLEX-RN exam, which is required to earn your nursing license.
