How does one go about specializing in dermatology as a nurse practitioner?

Some universitys offer that program as a post nurse practitioner certificate in dermatology ... you might want to do a FNP, because a lot of kids get acne :)

I would definitely work in primary care for at least a year before specializing. Also, as an Adult NP, you will only be able to see ages 13 and up. I'm not sure how many children see the dermatology, so you might want to find out before specializing as an Adult NP.
