The Course Curriculam

New Zealand (IQN Theoretical Examination)
It appears you're asking for the curriculum for the Computer-Based Test (CBT) for nurses seeking registration in New Zealand and the United Kingdom. While there isn't one single "cariculum" that covers both exactly, they share the common format of a CBT and assess foundational nursing knowledge. Here's a breakdown of what each entails: United Kingdom (NMC CBT - Part 1 of the Test of Competence): The CBT for the UK is administered by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and is divided into two parts: Part A: Numeracy (30 minutes, 15 questions): Assesses basic drug calculations, unit conversions, dosage calculations based on body weight, and fluid balance. Part B: Clinical Questions (2 hours 30 minutes, 100 multiple-choice questions): Evaluates essential professional knowledge, clinical skills, and attitudes required for safe and effective nursing practice in the UK. Key domains include: Professional Values: Ethical practices, respect for patients, and professional conduct (adherence to the NMC Code). Communication Skills: Clear and effective communication with patients and healthcare teams. Nursing Practice: Clinical procedures, patient assessments, and evidence-based care practices1 across the lifespan and in various settings.   1. www.britannicaoverseas.com www.britannicaoverseas.com Leadership & Management: Team coordination, conflict management, and decision-making in healthcare settings. The NMC recommends reviewing their Code of Conduct and the CBT information booklet for nurses for detailed preparation. Practice tests are available on the Pearson VUE website. New Zealand (IQN Theoretical Examination): The IQN (Internationally Qualified Nurses) Theoretical Examination is the CBT equivalent for New Zealand, administered by the Nursing Council of New Zealand (NCNZ)
