Women's Health Nurse Practitioner Post-Graduate Certificate
Post-graduate certificate (PGC) requirements are tailored to the individual student, depending on past academic work, experience, the student’s goals, and specialty requirements. Upon completion of the PGC requirements, a certificate is awarded by the College of Nursing (CON) and Graduate School. Graduates are eligible to apply to take board certification exams in the advanced practice role and population for which they have been prepared.
Due to higher education regulation changes, the University of Missouri–St. Louis cannot admit students from all states for online programs. Please see the Center for Teaching and Learning for additional information: http://www.umsl.edu/services/ctl/onlinelearning/state_authorization.html.
