As employment opportunities and demands of the health care environment change, nurses at the graduate level need additional specialty education. The College of Health Professions at Wilmington University has developed several options for nurses holding an earned MSN degree: Executive, Educator, Legal Nurse Consultant, and Public Health certificates.
All candidates for the post-master’s certificate must make an application to the program as a certificate candidate and must meet the admission requirements for the MSN program. A course of study may be individualized based on the type of MSN held by the candidate. Applicants may obtain a Graduate Certificate Program Form by downloading it from the Wilmington University Registrar’s webpage.
Through completion of the selected certification program, graduates will:
