I read somewhere (I think on these forums), that come 2011, all new CRNA's will need to get PhD's. Can anyone confirm this is for sure?

It's not PhD, but DNP (Doctorate of Nursing Practice) and I think the envisioned date is 2015. There will be others who can come along and verify. But, as of now, it is a vision only, not a mandate.

Here is the thread of discussion:
