Post-Master's Certificate in Nurse Educator
Program Description
Georgia College School of Nursing offers a nurse educator certificate for Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) prepared nurses who are seeking to certification as nurse educator.

Students should submit all course syllabi for review. A possible plan of study ranges from 11 to 21 credit hours.
