The family nurse practitioner (FNP) program consists of 47 credits and offers flexible full-time or part-time enrollment options. FNPs deliver holistic primary care to patients across all life stages, from newborns to older adults. These practitioners are trained to address both sudden and ongoing health conditions while emphasizing preventive care, health education, and illness prevention within family and community settings. After finishing the required coursework and clinical practice, graduates qualify to take the Family Nurse Practitioner Certification exam administered by either the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) or the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).
