What do you mean NMC accredited school? NMC is the governing body for nurses and without this you can not work as a RN in the UK All universities have to meet NMC requirements and if you are a registered nurse already in the Philippines what are you looking at doing study wise in the UK?

I would assume you mean the schools that are provide the Overseas Nursing Program which is recognised by the nursing and midwifery council.

sorry for the confusion, but as sharrie pointed out, I am indeed looking for those who offer the ONP, it's because I want to check with them regarding some consultancy companies which are trying to offer work-while you study programs in the UK and i want to make sure that if I'll be venturing in that direction I'd be able to know if the said companies are legit. thanks for the replies and do have a good day

I went through this process too, in 2006-2007, with mixed results from two agencies that required money, money, money. I survived it all, completing the very excellent course at the University of Sunderland and am now very happily working here but it was a nightmare getting it all set up. Read this article if you haven't already. I don't know that anything has changed for the better...

You might be interested in this article too, and don't miss the comments at the bottom. It's certainly not all that rosy here, but I love it anyway.
