I am a Masters prepared FamilyNurse Practitioner, currently working in Pediatrics. After about 12 years of primary care, I'm ready to move to a specialty. I'm interested in Nurse Educator certification, emphasis on obesity/Nutrition. Any suggestions on the best/ most cost effective on line programs? How long is the post masters program typically? Any pros or cons to this specialty from veterans? Thanks so much.
