Vermont's nursing market is anchored by the University of Vermont Medical Center in Burlington, the state's largest hospital and an academic medical center, along with a network of community and critical-access hospitals serving a largely rural population. With an older population, Vermont has steady demand in hospitals, long-term care, and home health.
Students can pursue affordable ADN programs through the Community College of Vermont and Vermont State University, BSN degrees at the University of Vermont and other institutions, accelerated options, and RN-to-BSN bridges plus MSN tracks for advanced practice and leadership.
Licensure is handled by the Vermont Board of Nursing. Vermont is a member of the Nurse Licensure Compact, so an RN or LPN license issued to a Vermont resident is a multistate license valid across all compact states — helpful for nurses in a rural state who take regional and travel assignments.
