A nurse educator is a nurse who teaches and prepares licensed practical nurses (LPN) and registered nurses (RN) for entry into practice positions. Nurse Educators also teach in graduate programs at Master’s and doctoral level which prepare advanced practice nurses, nurse educators, nurse administrators, nurse researchers, and leaders in complex healthcare and educational organizations.
this is Faculty who teach in LPN, associate degree and baccalaureate programs are required to hold a Master’s degree in nursing. Most baccalaureate and higher degree programs require a minimum of a Master’s degree and prefer the doctorate for full-time teaching positions. Many nurse educators have a clinical specialty background that is often blended with coursework in education. Individuals may complete a post-Master’s certificate in education to complement their clinical expertise if they choose to enter a faculty role.
