Help Please!!!!!!

[bertydiff]

Im a previous nursing student, I have completed 2 and a half years of training out of three, i was then terminated from the course due to inappropriate professional conduct, mainly due to ill health. Im trying to find out if there is anything i can do now to complete my training or if i can receive credit or a qualification for what i have completed, the university is not being helpfull at all. I was a scottish student.

thank you.

my daughter did one year of training and then had an accident and had to leave the course. she could get university credits for the year that she completed, but she was hurt badly at the time and didnt want to return to nursing so she never pursued it. but you should be able to get credits for each semester completed.

When did you train initially was it recently?

I've got the feeling that if you want to do nurse training you will have to do the whole course rather than just part of it. I know that you can suspend for reasons of ill health or pregnancy and you can go back and finish the course once these problems have resolved. The fact you were terminated means that you will be unable to go back to complete this particular course as you didn't suspend you were failed from the course.

You will not be able to recieve any qualification as you didn't complete the course, and the nursing training doesn't give partial qualifications like some other courses. (For example a degree I have done, if I had finished after the 2nd year I could have got a diploma) but this isn't the case with the nursing training.

As far as getting credits, I suppose if you wanted to do a different degree they may count some of the educational content of what you had done as an APEL providing it was within the last 5 years I believe, this is something you would need to discuss with the university of your new course as they would need to look at the content that you had completed to decide how many credits they would allocated to it.

Good luck
