Fortis Institute – Port St. Lucie
ACEN (Associate Degree in Nursing); Florida Board of Nursing approved AccreditedFortis Institute in Port St. Lucie runs two nursing entry points: a hybrid Associate Degree in Nursing leading to the NCLEX-RN, and a hybrid Practical Nursing program leading to the NCLEX-PN. The ADN appears in the ACEN program directory, and Fortis states its Florida campuses — Cutler Bay, Orange Park, Pensacola and Port St. Lucie — carry ACEN programmatic accreditation for the associate degree. Fewer than half the ADN's courses are delivered online, with the balance on campus. Certified nursing assistants with 40 hours of practice in the preceding two months may transfer credit into the PN program. One caveat: legacy Fortis pages still cite ACICS as the institutional accreditor, an agency that lost federal recognition in 2022, so current institutional accreditation should be confirmed directly.
