Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (Post-Master’s PMHNP)

The College of Graduate Nursing (CGN) at SWAGÊÓƵ pioneered the delivery of a web-based family nursing practitioner program in 1997 – the very first program of its kind in the nation. Today, that legacy continues with our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (Post-Masters PMHNP) program. The SWAGÊÓƵ College of Graduate Nursing offers a seamless progression to earn your Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) certificate/credential.

Our hybrid online learning program delivers the knowledge and skills to prepare you for your PMHNP role within a flexible schedule. Our campus-based seminar intensives, on the SWAGÊÓƵ Pomona campus, and clinical experiences in a designated community will prepare you for clinical practice within a variety of healthcare settings.

Learn more about the program by visiting the Requirements page. Soon, you will be providing comprehensive care to patients, families, and communities.
