You’re ready to advance your practice. With a post-master’s certificate from Hawai‘i Pacific University’s School of Nursing, you can.

Our online post-master’s certificate in nursing (PMC)—the first of its kind in Hawai‘i—allows you to pursue licensure in another specialty while you continue seeing patients. Whether you choose to focus on family medicine, mental health, or acute care, you can expect an experiential education that helps you look closer, see further, and do more.

We invite you to join an online post-master's program rooted in the cultural mosaic that characterizes HPU’s location at the nexus of East and West. Over three semesters, you’ll gain new clinical experience you can immediately apply to your career in settings that span rural clinics, urban hospitals, private practices, urgent care centers, community organizations, and more. And through evidence-based coursework and hands-on application, you’ll emerge better prepared to care for patients anywhere in the world.
