The Certified Nurse Specialist (CNS) in Family Health Nursing Program has been structured so that core lectures aimed at understanding the family, family function, family environment and family resources can be organically combined with research, seminar and practicum. These are then positioned as family support aimed at realizing the well-being of the family system unit at all segments of their growth and development, with the ability to acquire the knowledge, techniques and research methods necessary for these as its key characteristic. Candidates completing this program are awarded a Master's degree in Nursing, and receive a diploma certifying them as having completed the program.

It should be noted that soon after admission to the program candidates undergo early exposure, with the objective of training and motivation to form the image of CNS in Family Health Nursing, and engage in shadowing training that emulates the CNS in Family Health Nursing. Also, exercises and case studies aimed at participant families are considered, and through on-the-job practicum under a working CNS in Family Health Nursing, this has the objective of providing them not only with "practice," but enabling them to take on all the roles of a CNS in Family Health Nursing, including "consultations," "coordination," "ethical coordination," "education" and "research." In addition, for two years following admission to the program, family health care nursing research is taken up from the international perspective, with guidelines providing for submission of English-language papers to international journals. By this, we aim to nurture the CNS in Family Health Nursing who can conduct family support based on evidence and theory acquired through research, and specialist who can function at an international level.
