Overview

At Regis College, you can earn a post-master’s certificate online to not just prepare for advancement in nursing, but to also expand services as a health care provider.

Learn to provide primary care related to chronic illness and aging, including polypharmacy management and end-of-life considerations with the Adult Gerontology - Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (Online) offered at Regis College.

Careers

Between 2019 and 2029, the number of nurse practitioner jobs is projected to increase by 45%. In addition to more job opportunities, NPs can also prepare for higher earnings. The average nurse practitioner earned $111,680 in 2020.*

More than 89% of licensed NPs are certified in at least one area of primary care, according to the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. While we face evolving challenges to our health care system due to the recent pandemic and as patient populations swell, so does the need for more licensed nurse practitioners. MSN-credentialed nurses are able to prepare to emerge as NPs through programs that can be completed in less time, such as the online Post-Master’s Certificate at Regis College. These nursing leaders are gaining greater control in their practice as full prescriptive authority expands across the nation, are positioned for high-level positions, and specialize in areas that allow them to work with a variety of unique patient populations.
