New NCNZ Application Process
International nurse registration
New IQN application for registration process October 2010
In response to feedback the Council has implemented a new two stage application process.
The two stages of the application process are:
* Stage one, the application form is sent out, completed by the applicant and returned with the fee
* Stage two, the Council will send the applicant the transcript of training and the verification (also known as a letter of good standing) forms with an applicant identifier number.
The overall information and requirements for registration has not changed.
The changes in process should reduce the delays often experienced with documents arriving before an application has been submitted.
This change becomes effective from the 1st December 2010

Work Experience Requirement as of Dec 2009
Please be informed that the Work Experience Requirement is Critical in 3 different stages in your NZ Application.
1. NCNZ - their work experience requirement changes from time to time. I suggest that you email / call them directly to verify :
oseas@nursingcouncil.org.nz / + 64 4 3859589
2. CAP schools- again different CAP schools requires different length of work experience. (2009 trend is MOST CAP providers requires 2 or more years of work experience. You will have a limited choice of CAP provider if you have less than 2 years of work experience. Contact them individually for their requirements.
3. Work Application - ( 2009 trend= Private / Government hospitals prefer applicants with 2-3 or more years of work experience. Please bear in mind that you are competing for slots with other overseas applicants with heaps of work experience , NZ new graduates plus other kiwis that are returning to nursing. If you have less than 2 years of work experience you will have a slight difficulty in securing a job offer from a hospital. But there are still jobs from resthomes and other facilities.)
These are all trends based on the experiences of Nurse2nz forum members for 2009. Do not take my word for it. I just wanted all of you who are just starting their NZ application to be informed of the latest trends in nursing in NZ.
