Are there any distance learning programs for nurse-midwifery?
Distance learning programs are available, usually to students who live more than one hundred miles from the school. Course attendance is through videoconferencing, the World Wide Web, telephone and fax. A few on campus visits are also required. Reading materials assigned are textbooks, online information and publications available through libraries and direct mailings. Clinical work is conducted near the student’s location with certified nurse-midwives who are pre-approved by the college.
