Nursing TOP UP Program (One Year) leading to BSc Hons Nursing
If a student is trained as Nurse completes an UG program in Ireland they will meet the requirements to work as a Registered Nurse in Ireland by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI) because they have completed an approved course by NMBI.  This course will lead to registration.  Students will then register with NMBI. 
The advantage of the BN International is that students can work 20 hours per week during term time and 40 hours per week during academic holidays under the student visa they obtain to attend the course. When they complete the BNI programme they are allowed the graduate visa – to work full time for one year. It is during this time that a lot of them apply for registration as their language level has also improved.
