[NPInfo] online education course: Nurse Educators for Tomorrow (NET) Proj...

Dear Rose,
The NLN has a course that is online, basically a continuing ed thing.   SUNY 
@ Stony Brook is providing a CE course that is entitled "Certificate in  
Teaching Clinical Nursing".  It is four 8 hr days to the tune of 500  dollars, and 
is not currently online, but the NLN course is.
In NY, there are alternate pathways to becoming a certified teacher, but it  
seems like a cumbersome process.  If you have a BS in Nursing, then you  could 
apply via an alternate pathway with the state and, after a certain number  of 
credits earned, you could progress towards NY State certification.  And  
teach health in the public schools?  
I am under the impression that the DNP credential will be accepted as an  
appropriate credential for those who teach Nursing.  I'm sure other people  could 
give you a lot more info than me about that route.
