*Indicates courses required for a Family Nurse Practitioner Certificate
Following graduation from the Family Nurse Practitioner program, individuals must take a national certification examination to obtain state licensure as a certified nurse practitioner. Graduates can take one of two national certification examinations issued by: (1) The American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) or (2) The American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP).
For students with an earned MSN, a Family Nurse Practitioner Certificate may be earned by taking the 33 didactic and clinical course credits indicated with an asterisk.
All didactic courses are asynchronous online courses and FNP candidates have access to ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ’s faculty and online engagement team. FNP candidates are always welcome to access campus labs and facilities throughout their time in the program.
