Program Model
Program Objectives
In the MN-Leadership program, students build on their undergraduate education and previous professional experiences to grow as nurse leaders. Graduates of this program are equipped with the necessary competencies, knowledge and judgement to advance nursing practice, and unleash the profession’s capacity to lead public policy and systems transformation.
This program was founded on the conviction that nurses should lead the change toward more equitable and compassionate health care systems. In a rapidly changing health landscape, shaped by social, political and economic circumstances, regulatory changes and digital revolutions, nurses need the advanced knowledge to navigate these systems, recognize health challenges and advocate for best practices.
The MN-LPNP prepares students to synthesize, implement and evaluate evidence-informed solutions, manage complex situations, and develop innovative strategies to improve health outcomes for all. Students acquire a sophisticated understanding of information technology tools used in health care service delivery and its impact, as well as a recognition of how access to digital health tools and patients’ literacy with them can impact determinants of health.
Program Overview
Students are required to complete seven courses; five core courses which ensure competency in key areas of practice and two electives that give students the opportunity to gain specialized knowledge in chosen area(s) of interest.

The program is designed to be completed in one year of full-time study or two years of part-time study. The courses are a hybrid of online learning with Synchronous residency periods during each term.
