Online ACNP??

Published

I've noticed that Purdue and Georgetown Universities offer AGACNP programs ONLINE. Does anyone know anything about these programs? Do nurses get jobs coming out of these programs? Are they as rigorous as a normal AGACNP program?

If you are deciding between these two, Georgetown is clearly the better choice. Purdue Global is just Kaplan with a name change - a predatory, embarrassment to the NP profession.

thanks for the heads up on Purdue Global. Not pursuing either at this point, but I am curious as ACNP is something I'm looking into for the future.

I know people in online FNP but not ACNP programs. I've been looking into Georgetown and there are a few things I find really great about their program. Their classes are live so you actually video chat with the professor and students throughout the lecture. They also have in--person intensives where you go there for a few days and have hands on learning (I'm assuming this is like a simulation lab for assessment and such). They also find your clinical placements for you, which is nice. Other online programs I have found are Vanderbilt, Texas Tech, and Maryville.
