Yes! That part about robust transcript is veryyy true! I know someone from the university of Derby whose transcript was accepted by Texas BON and all she just has to do is work in a pediatric ward for about 6 months or so to make up for pediatric experience.

I want to be proactive right now about amending any experience shortfall now that I’m in my first year. If you have any helpful pointers on that, I’d be glad to hear it, thank you 🫶🏾

The best thing to do is to request for placements in other fields like mental health, gynaecology, A&E (this can help a lot too) and community placements. When on placements, request to go to other places for a day or two and make sure you have an evidence of this in your placement document.

Hi
I am also in the same shoes with you, I studied in the uk and I and wondering if CGFNS will evaluate my credentials, what do you advise ?

Hi, I know we have had a private chat about this but just to put it out here for anyone that might need it.

I am still going through the process of evaluating my credentials so I will have first hand experience to share when that is done.
However, from research and friends who started before me, it’s best to choose evaluating agencies like ERES, Josef Silny (depending on if they are accepted by the board of nursing you have chosen to use). New York board of nursing has favoured some UK trained nurses too.
At the end, how robust the transcript your university sends also goes a long way.

Mehn
I think masters in adult nursing is for those that have bsc

You can apply for the 2 years pre-registration masters degree. It’s open to people without a bachelors degree in nursing. After the programme, you get licensed and can practice in the UK.

Hello everyone,
I studied MSc pre-registration adult nursing in the UK and wish to relocate to the US. Does anyone know the best way to go about credential evaluation because of the lack of mental health, genealogy and paediatric theory and practice hours for those of us who studied adult nursing?
I will really appreciate any guidance or assistance.

Hello Everyone, pls I have a question from a friend. She is recently divorced and has custody of the child but with reasonable access to the father of the child.
She want to come to the UK with the child on a skilled worker visa but doesn’t know how to apply for the child’s Visa. The father of the child would frustrate and ensure the journey to the UK doesn’t happen if he finds out she wants to relocate.
How best can she relocate with her child?
What documents will she need and must the father of the child be involved in the process?

Hello everyone,

Please, does anyone know if NMC is actively recruiting midwives the way they are recruiting nurses from overseas.

A lady said she has writing the CBT and is now on the NMC register but when she applied for jobs, recruiters said they are not employing overseas midwives.
I just want to be certain because a family member who is a midwife wants to apply but it is held back b because of what the lady said.

Please anyone with info about this should help me out. Thank you

Get to have your details ‘on the system’
1. If you are from Nigeria, register to vote in the UK

2. Ditch that Lebara or Lycamobile phone line. Pick up a cheap, SIM Only contract with mobile phone provider (EE, O2, Three, Vodafone etc...)

3. Although having a credit builder Credit card is cool, if you don’t feel self-disciplined enough, do not take on a credit card yet.

Summary: get your details to be ‘in the system’

Thank you. I have registered to vote.
I will look into getting a sim only contract.

Go on youtube and watch videos by Sasha Yanshin........ And a host of other financial vloggers...........

Thank you.

Good morning.

I am a masters student here in the UK. I want to know how I can build my credit score because it seems having a good credit score is very important in UK.
In what ways can I build my score as a newbie in UK.

Kemkem93:
Also can a sister be considered as a relative living in the UK? Because it doesn't seems to be among their options! Pls I need ur candid responsss.

Yes, it is considered. She is your relative so you have to put her details.

PMID:
Pls I urgently need ur reply; is it true that if u wanna apply and do biometrics at TLS VI, it attracts additional fee of £55 which doesn’t apply at Ikeja TLS?

Yes, that's true

After the completion of the 2yrs pre registration master program in uk( adult nursing) would someone be eligible to practise else where apart from UK? Transition from Bsc Accounting to MSC adult nursing( pre registration) asking for myself because I have already gotten an admission with university of Essex. Thanks

Yes, once you have the license you can practice elsewhere.
You just have to know the conditions of registering in those countries. But for Nigeria, I don't think you can cos they ask for a degree of minimum of 3 years b4 they can accept tooi into their foreign trained nurses adaptation program.

macbernard:
Even if she has experience as a registered nurse in the uk?

Yes, they are quite strict with that.
The process of getting the license as a foreign trained nurse is something else.

What do I want? I really enjoy being in the clinic during my leave period, I do get this peace of mind and fulfillment whenever I volunteer to work in the clinic compare to my normal sales work. My real concern is do I get to practice with MSC In nursing when i come back home, would the nursing council here in Nigeria gives me licence to practice as qualified nurse? Thanks

NMC Nigeria will only admit you for the foreign trained nurses adaptation and then license exam if your course of study is at least 3 years. For the 2 years program, they won't accept the degree (I don't know their reasons for this though).

whitley:
They will send it to your e-mail .

You already in the UK?? U posted sometime ago about your visa approval

Yea, I am in the UK. I am asking for a friend who got admission at University of Greenwich.

whitley:
Approximately 3days after account statement submission

Pls for university of Greenwich, do they send the username for the student portal or do I need to request for it?

Zoey1:
1.To study MSC Nursing, you must have had a degree in Nursing.
2. B.A won't get you MSc Nursing but the person can do Bsc Nursing in some schools not all UK schools accept International students for Nursing/Social Works.
3. B.A/Bsc/MSC Social Works in the UK is very competitive.
- A lot of schools don't admit international students because the course has a 170 days work placement attached to it that a student visa can't fit into.
- A lot of schools want someone who has had 4/5 years working experience in that field, so its more of experience than qualification.
- Its a 3 step admission in most schools (Written test, Interview and a background check/declaration).
Like that....like that.

I don't agree with point number 1.
Msc Nursing (pre-registration course) is open to people from any field. Some schools limit it to those with science background and some need you to have like 600 hours of care experience.
It's very possible to get MSc nursing in UK without having a bachelor's in nursing.

Hello everyone.

I am asking for a friend. She had applied for UK visit visa previously but was refused and she stated she has a sister in the UK.
Now, she has applied for tier 4 visa and while filling her form, the agent didn't state she has a sister in the UK.
She has done her biometrics already and the 15th working day will be within next week.
She is confused on what to do to avoid a refusal based on misinterpretation. She wants to know if she should send a mail to UKVI to explain things or should she just leave it that way.

Pls gurus help out.

The Lord has done it ooo���

I use a VPN when buying Lagos to London tickets and change my location from Nigeria to the UK.

Previously you usually get lower prices when you buy your tickets from the UK as opposed to buying from Nigeria, except that you have to pay with your card, which is no longer feasible with Nigerian cards.

In any case, prices on BA's website for 2nd week of October are down to tolerable levels ($410 for a one-way ticket to Manchester/Aberdeen, about 160k), and I just bought earlier today.

Pls can you recommend a VPN one can install?
I use windscribe but when I search, it's still same price as when the VPN is off.
