Where Health Care Meets Action
Beyond the classroom, you’ll be able to transfer your technical and communication skills easily to a fast-paced work environment after training in a variety of settings, including our modern facilities with advanced simulation technology and professional labs, with impactful small-group learning. Your education is further strengthened through exceptional hands-on experiential learning opportunities in hospitals, clinics, community agencies and care homes, ensuring you're prepared for success no matter where your career takes you.
Nursing Labs
The Faculty of Health has dedicated nursing labs at KPU Langley, ensuring you get the hands-on nursing practice you need to be successful. The nursing labs use sophisticated sim technology—a life-sized computer-controlled manikin that simulates the symptoms of various illnesses through changes in breath, pulse and eye movements. The nursing labs are found on the KPU Langley campus and provide a unique learning experience for students across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.
