You must

• Hold an NFQ Level 8 qualification. However, applicants who do not hold a Level 8 qualification may still be eligible to join the programme through our supported-entry pathway programme. This is subject to an assessment of prior learning and experience.
• Have an active registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland.
• Be working in the programme specialist practice area in Beaumont Hospital or in another clinical site which has been audit approved for the duration of the programme. Recognition of prior learning (RPL) Learning occurs in many contexts including work, involvement in social and community activities, and learning through life experience generally. Recognition of prior learning (RPL) does not give credit for experience as such – rather, it considers learning that was acquired as a result of the experience. RPL may be used to gain admission to programmes where you may not have obtained the standard entry requirements. This is considered on a case-by-case basis. Exemptions from programme modules that duplicate learning already demonstrably acquired through prior learning may also be considered on a case-by-case basis.
