According to Wendy Robb Ph.D., Dean & Professor, School of Nursing, Hazel and Walter May Nursing Endowed Chair for Excellence in Nursing at Cedar Crest College, "To maximize your earning potential as a nurse entering the field, pursue certifications in specialty areas that increase marketability. Large hospital networks in urban areas often have higher pay scales and working nights, holidays, and weekends will often result in differential pay that will boost earnings. Negotiating your salary based on qualifications and market research can also maximize earnings. Never stop learning! Continually seek the next opportunity for growth. Don't be stagnant, advance your education with a new degree and seek niche positions that fulfill you."

-(Note: some stats on the BLS website are reflective of the Mean or Average salary and others represent the Median or midpoint. AANP data are all reported in Median)
-As NPs advance in their careers, there is a clear and positive relationship between number of years' experience and salary growth.
