The Post Graduate Certificate curriculum consists of the specialty track coursework for the Emergency Nurse Practitioner. This rigorous program provides the education and skills necessary to function as a competent nurse practitioner and leader in the emergency care setting, the skills to perform the necessary diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, and to be eligible for board certification as an emergency nurse practitioner. The program of study includes a minimum of 300 clinical hours and an extensive procedure lab/seminar.
