Hello, my lovely people!
For many overseas nurses aspiring to work in the UK, understanding the recruitment process and associated costs is crucial—but it’s not always clear. Let’s start by breaking down the updated NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council) so you can plan your journey effectively.
- Qualification Evaluation Fee: £140
- Computer-Based Test (CBT): £83
-
Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE): £794
- Partial OSCE Resit: £387
- Full OSCE Resit: £794
- Registration Fee: £153
Important Notes:
- Many NHS trusts sponsor the first attempt at the OSCE. However, resits are typically your responsibility. If an employer covers the cost of a resit, they may deduct this from your salary over time.
- The registration process also requires you to pass the IELTS or OET for English language proficiency.
It’s vital to prepare and take these steps seriously to ensure your success. The NMC process is rigorous but designed to maintain high standards for healthcare professionals in the UK.
If you have any questions or need personalized support—whether it's guidance through the registration process, creating a strong CV, or drafting a compelling NHS cover letter I’m here to help. You can book a consulting call or explore my range of eBook guides tailored to support you on this journey.
