This is a cross conversion course for qualified nurses wanting to undertake training for a different pathway of nursing, e.g. convert from a Mental Health Nurse to an Adult Nurse.Acceptance on to the programme depends on a number of factors, for example: initial field of registration, a 2:2 honours degree or equivalent in Nursing, the date of the applicant’s original registration and the availability of adequate resources to enable the applicant to join the programme with advanced standing e.g. vacancies within programmes, or placements. Within six months of completing their course, 98% of our students are employed or in further study (Destination of Leavers from Higher Education - there was insufficient data to publish information specifically for this course. This is either because the course size is small or respondent numbers were low. Therefore, the data displayed is from across the last two years). The duration of the course will depend on your previous qualifications and experiences. The average time for a programme leading to a second registration is normally 18 months. Successful completion of the course will lead to a qualification in BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing.
