Educational path: following MSN program

Published

Hello, I am curious about the correct path to take when trying to become a Dermatology Nurse

Practitioner. I have my bachelors in Psychology from Elmhurst College and will be starting the MENP for Non-Nurses (MS) program at Depaul. My question is what will be next after this program? Do I apply for a DNP program? I have seen a few programs that do not require work experience in order to be accepted. Also where does the dermatology portion come in? Is it a certification and on the job training or additional education?

Thank you,

Jimmie

Just do a master's FNP and find some kind of derm or aesthetics class to go to as well as plenty of derm CME.
