On successful completion of the initial assessment, you will be able to book the LEVEL 1 test of competence, i.e CBT (Computer based test) which can be booked and appeared from any part of the world.

Successfully pass the CBT exam.

This test of competence examines your understanding, knowledge and application of professional skills.

You will be tested on areas such as acute care, long-term care setting, caring of healthy people, caring for patients with complex needs and illnesses, and caring for people in a community setting such as their own home.

The CBT exam is a computer-based exam made up of theoretical practice-based knowledge. It is all multiple-choice questions and it will take place in a test centre or can be completed online, depending on the country you are applying from.

Click here to register for your test.

Exam results are emailed to candidates within 48 hours after taking the examination and you will be awarded either a pass or a fail. The CBT is valid for two years.

The exam costs £130 and will be refunded by the Trust upon arrival.

NMC aim to process the application within 60 days, once we have received all required documents. When everything is completed, you will be invited to complete the OSCE exam in your assigned UK hospital.
