Nursing (Adult) [with Foundation Year]

Anglia Ruskin University

The foundation year is an extended course that is not accredited by the NMC, meaning students are not considered registered
student nurses and NMC regulations do not apply during this preparatory stage. Upon successful completion of the foundation
year, DBS and Occupational Health clearance and passing the faculty interview, you will progress to our NMC-validated Nursing
degree course and take the first step towards your career as a registered nurse. Immerse yourself in placements that will help
you build practice-based nursing skills and knowledge. Study in Cambridge or Chelmsford, in our cutting-edge skill laboratories
and become a part of our supportive nursing community. When you graduate, you’ll be ready to start your career as a Registered Nurse.

As you are studying a foundation degree, the first year of your four year degree will be at ARU College.
ARU College is your pathway to an ARU degree. We provide our students with the support and knowledge you need to excel in
your chosen pathway. At ARU College, your foundation year will provide you with a curriculum based on your chosen degree,
with small class sizes, 16 contact hours per week and continual feedback to keep you on the right track. The course modules are
a combination of subject-focused topics relevant to your chosen course, alongside skill modules that are important building blocks for studying at degree level.
