Policy for Programme Approval and Monitoring Processes
NMBI sets the standards and requirements for registration in all divisions of the Register and specialist nursing and midwifery qualifications. We set the criteria for the approval of an education body seeking to deliver an education programme and we monitor adherence to these criteria to ensure ongoing compliance.
This document outlines the processes involved in the approval and monitoring of nursing and midwifery education programmes. It details the roles of NMBI, education bodies and their practice partners. This document relates to the approval and monitoring of all pre-first-time registration programmes, post-registration programmes leading to registration, and specialist nursing and midwifery education programmes. These processes are informed by our primary legislation, statutory instruments, our statement of strategy, and our funding model.
This document is divided into five sections:
