   Elkpark: When I was asking for advice from a NP where I work whether I should go for the DNP or to a school for the Masters, she stressed DNP. My employer is already posing NP positions with a DNP degree preferred. So you are right, I don't know if...

11. Clarification on the DNP requirement of 2015

    medic33 replied to umbdude's topic in Doctoral
