Nursing Post Master's Advanced Certificate Programs
The purpose of the formal Post-Graduate Advanced Certificate Programs is to provide advanced study for registered nurses without completing a second master's of science degree in nursing. As with all Molloy University School of Nursing Programs, the Post Master's Advanced Certificate Programs were developed to meet both the career goals of nurses and society's needs.
Post-Master’s Programs are offered in: Nursing Administration with Informatics, Nursing Administration, Nursing Informatics, Nursing Education, Adult Gerontology Clinical Nurse Specialist, Nurse Practitioner areas of Adult (Primary and Acute), Pediatrics, Family and Family Psychiatric Mental Health.
Advanced Certificate programs are meant for those master’s degree prepared nurses who seek to advance their knowledge and skill in various areas of education, administration or clinical practice. The Nurse Practitioner and Clinical Nurse Specialist Advanced Certificate Programs are designed to prepare the advanced practitioner in primary or acute care (NP) or a clinical specialty area (CNS). The education and administration programs prepare those seeking to expand their role in these areas.
Consideration is given to the learner as an adult. As such, students assume self-direction and identify their specific learning needs. Instructional methods demonstrate individualized learning and collaboration between students, faculty and mentors or preceptors.
