Course Information
For internationally educated nurses (IENs) who apply for bridging courses should include but not limited to the following, having completed at least three year full time course in nursing at MQF level 5, the course content of the three year course has to be evaluated against the stipulations of the EU directives 2005/36 and 2013/55 for nurse education. Any identified incongruences between a three year programme and the EU directives are to be addressed in the programme for IENs. In addition IENs need to provide evidence of an active registration with the professional regulatory body e.g. nursing council of the country of applicant’s origin or country of applicant’s study, certificate of good standing from the respective nursing council, and have at least 12months working experience as a nursing in the last 5 years from the date of application or have completed the nursing programme and registered with the respective council within the last 18 months from date of application.
This course is targeted at:
- Nurses who are in possession of an MQF Level 5 (or comparable as per MQRIC) in Nursing, who need to upgrade their knowledge, skills, and competences in order to apply for registration with the Maltese Council of Nurses and Midwives as first level nurses.
- Non-EU trained nurses who are in possession of a minimum MQF Level 6 (or comparable as per MQRIC) in Nursing, seeking a bridging course to enable them to apply for registration with the Maltese Council of Nurses and Midwives as first level nurses.
