About the ProgramThe College of Nursing offers three post master’s advanced certificate programs: Nurse Practitioner, Clinical Nurse Specialist and Nurse Educator. These two-, three- and four-semester programs prepare nurses for career opportunities available only to nurses with specialized education. Expert faculty guide clinical learning under the preceptorship of experienced nurses, nurse practitioners and physicians in settings throughout Central New York. The College of Nursing has clinical contracts with more than 100 institutions and agencies. Students arrange their own preceptored sites with advisement from our faculty. The College will accommodate students’ interests as long as the settings and preceptors meet the requirements of the post master’s program. Although every effort is made to accommodate work and family schedules, applicants should enter the program when they have adequate time to fulfill the required clinical hours. The Center for Continuing Nursing Education in the College of Nursing awards the certificate upon successful completion of the post master’s program.
