While a nurse educator must at least be certified as a registered nurse, many have advanced degrees such as a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN). If you have years of experience in nursing and are passionate about training and mentoring the next generation of registered nurses, now may be the time to go back to nursing school to earn your MSN. When you enroll in Walden University’s MSN program with a specialization in Nursing Education, you’ll learn to design, implement, evaluate, and revise educational programs for nurses.
