Not only are nurse educators in high demand, more diversity among nurse educators is also in need, according to a June 2024 update from the AACN.
The duration of the Master of Science in Nursing, Nurse Educator program is 18.5 months. Courses can be completed online and clinicians at a site convenient for students. A nurse with any degree level, ranging from associates to doctoral, can complete the program. For individuals who already have a master’s or doctoral degree, the program can be completed as a “certification” according to the June 6 news release.
The inaugural cohort will begin classes Aug. 26.
