Tampa General Hospital’s Perioperative Transition Program is a 36-week, blended learning program that provides the skills and knowledge for working as a nurse in an operating room. 

This program requires a minimum of six hours per week of online study and testing, but upon successful completion, registered nurses will be able to fill a circulating nurse role in TGH operating rooms.
