The Nebraska Wesleyan University Post Masters Certificate in Nursing program prepares nurses and nurse practitioners having an MSN degree to be a Nurse Educator or a Nurse Leader. With an MSN degree and the post masters certificate in nursing certificate, you can work in research, public health, and advanced levels of nursing administration, as well as a nurse educator.

As a teacher you may work at community colleges and universities. Nurse educators combine clinical skills and knowledge together with their passion for teaching future nurses.

Our highly qualified faculty makes personal attention to students an integral part of the certificate program.
