Nursing, Family Nurse Practitioner Certificate of Advanced Study
This program is designed for students who have already completed a D.N.P. and wish to complete coursework for eligibility to take the Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) certification exam. Admission to the certificate of completion option is competitive and limited in numbers.
Note: This certificate is not representative of the FNP credential. The award of this certificate of completion represents that the individual has completed the educational requirements for examination and licensure as a Family Nurse Practitioner.
Developing advanced competencies as a Registered Nurse (RN) or advanced practice RN (APRN) to function in complex organizations and meet the needs of patients, clients, and communities is crucial today more than ever. The School of Nursing (SON) provides several online programs including a
MSN degree with Nurse Educator, Healthcare Leadership, or Family Nurse Practitioner options,
DNP degree in Leadership or Leadership/Family Nurse Practitioner, and
Family Nurse Practitioner-Certificate of Advance Study (FNP-CAS) for nurses with a DNP degree.
