Any chance you would share with us what your salary is? I'm very interested in education but really on the fence in regard to salary, but then again that's only based on what I've heard around.

I am starting to think about transitioning to nurse educator. Any advice in getting my foot in the door. I have 11 years of varied nursing experience I have an AASN but also have a BS and anMS from prior to starting my career in nursing.

Thank you!

I an a nurse with 11 years experience ranging from ER to Psych to case management and currently am the Director of Medical Quality for a large Social Service agency in NYC. I have an AASN in nursing but have a BS and an MS from prior to becoming a nurse (17-18 years ago, as I worked as a social worker after receiving my previous degrees). I would LOVE to become a nurse educator, preferably in an educational setting, but am also open to starting with clinical education. What are my chances or what else do I need? In theory I wouldn't mind taking courses but I work a very stressful and time consuming job and have a young child. The upside (ha!) is I have an over 3 hour daily commute mostly spent on a bus. I appreciate any and all info, suggestions and insight!
