  • A Diploma in Nursing or Nursing Diploma is an entry-level tertiary education nursing degree. In the United States, this type of degree is usually awarded by hospital-based nursing schools. Students awarded a Diploma in Nursing are qualified to sit for the NCLEX-RN and apply for licensure as a Registered Nurse. At one time, all nurses in the United States were diploma-prepared. The Cherry Ames series of children's books was created to encourage girls to go into the nursing profession during World War II. She was a "hospital diploma" nurse. Although the number of hospital-based nursing schools continues to decrease, many still exist. Some require that non-nursing prerequisite courses be completed at another school prior to admission or coordinate their program with classes at a nearby school, though many are still self-contained.
  • En France, l'accès à la profession d'infirmier est règlementé. La réussite du concours d'entrée en institut de formation en soins infirmiers subordonne l'accession à un Institut de formation en soins infirmiers (IFSI) dans lequel une formation en alternance débouche sur la présentation du diplôme d'État d'infirmier. Celle-ci est d'une durée de 38 mois. L'admission se fait au niveau du baccalauréat (obligatoire).
