Overview

The NMC require Registered Nurses seeking registration in a second field to undertake a standard pre-registration nursing programme, against which Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) claims, including relevant practice learning are made.

Key facts

As part of the RPL process, your Professional Portfolio has to be available for examination. It should contain the required original evidence: certificated learning, reflective accounts of clinical experience, evidence of attendance at clinical updates, evidence of best practice in evidence based care and the dissemination of this to others, feedback from service users, involvement in projects, a current appraisal and other material that may be relevant.To demonstrate nursing practice experience, the role you undertook, the dates and the approximate length of time spent in each area need to be verified by the university or your nurse manager. Confirmation will be obtained from the verifying signatory.All NMC registered nurses are eligible for the BSc (Hons) Children's Nursing programme and applicants with either a first or second class honours Degree in nursing are eligible for the PGDip Children's Nursing programme.Students on these courses must be seconded by their employing trust. Please be aware that the duration of the programme will be dependant on the previous practice learning experiences.Both the BSc (Hons) Children's Nursing and the PgDip Children's Nursing require students to complete a total of 2300 hours of relevant nursing practice, which could include previous practice. Where applicants have less than six months of children's nursing practice the duration of their programme may be extended.
