Nursing exams on June 7

Registration for the exams will be open from June 3 to 5 between 8am and 12:30pm at the ministry's premises in Abu Dhabi.

Exams will be open to candidates working or opting to work for the MoH or the private health sector. Nurses who are working for the private sector have to submit an official letter from the Private Medical Licensing Department to sit for the exams, according to Fatima Al Rifai, Director of the Federal Nursing Department.

Nurses wanting to be registered for the exams must meet certain eligibility criteria concerning academic qualifications and practical experience.

Applicants who have graduated in foreign nursing programmes must have scored a minimum of 60 per cent of total marks. Applicants must have had at least 1,000 hours experience within three years prior to applying for registration in the UAE.

Registration will be closed once the seats are full. Registration application forms and instruction and information sheet on the exams are available at the department from Saturday to Wednesday from 8am to 12:30pm.
