Questions about this field

Is my nursing diploma from another EU country recognised?

For many EU countries recognition is possible without exams, because the training is harmonised. The authority in the federal state decides. We tell you what applies to you.

Can I start before recognition is finished?

Often yes, as a nursing assistant. Once recognised, you work as a registered nurse.

Which German level do I need?

For registered nurses usually B2. For assistants it depends on the employer.
