U-Pitt has a DNP 'with a leadership focus' here is my contribution... (if I didn't know it was a DNP.. I would assume is was a MN in nursing administration... or even a MHA with a nursing focus....).. once again I'm an advocate for the implementation of a DNP just not an advocate for the current implementation... HUGE variance among schools, no outcome based standards..., no method to conduct a true standardized test that validates the clinician.
