Hello, I am just stepping into the program to become a nursing educator in the future. My hospital has a good tuition benefit paying only 50 bucks per credit, also I don't think I could work at the bedside till 65yrs old.. So I feel I have to do something, plus, I love teaching.. but when I look at the pay the nurse educators are getting, it's so disappointing me... Currently I am getting about 90k... I don't know what to do... Should I just get the master degree for just in case? how you guys think?
