Top Ten Reasons to Choose SMS
- You have a calling to serve women, and so do we. Seattle Midwifery School started educating midwives and birth professionals 30 years ago and we’ve just begun to change the world with students like you!
- We train midwives and leaders. Our program trains midwives to be confident advocates for midwifery care and brave entrepreneurs whose activism is through their work.
- Our graduates are successful. 100% of our graduates from the past three years have passed their state and provincial licensing exams and nearly all are working as midwives or in a related field.
- Experience an education that combines tradition and innovation. Interactive and continually evolving through new research, our curriculum is evidence-based and challenging, while still respecting the mystery of birth.
- Our faculty are at the top of their fields. Every faculty member is a working professional and an expert in her or his area of instruction.
- Your learning impacts your neighborhood. Our low-residency model allows many students to live and obtain their clinical training in their own community.
- We learn and explore together. We are a tight knit community of staff, students, and faculty engaged in learning and committed to growing.
- When it comes to practicum work, we’ve got some experience. Getting you started in practicum work comes from collaboration with our Clinical Coordinator who will help you navigate through your apprenticeship training.
- Get excited by the history of midwifery! Seattle Midwifery School’s library holds historical information on birth, midwifery and women’s health, as well as the most current birth literature to use in your latest course paper or senior thesis.
- A beautiful campus welcomes you to monthly onsites. Supported by the serene greenery of Talaris World Campus, Seattle Midwifery School is an inspiring place to come and learn.
