With the continued shortage of nursing faculty, schools of nursing need short yet effective means of preparing educators to teach in their programs. One such strategy is a post-masters certificate in nursing education. This article describes the courses, learning activities, and outcomes of a post-masters certificate program in nursing education. Twenty-five graduates, randomly selected from the 53 who had completed the program, were interviewed. The findings indicated that a post-masters certificate was an effective strategy for preparing nurse educators and meeting the demands for more faculty in a short period of time.
