The iNurse project is an innovative recruitment program that addresses Belgium's nursing shortage by training and placing skilled Indian and Tibetan nurses in the Belgian healthcare system.

Candidates should possess a GNM or BSc Nursing degree, with a minimum of one year of clinical experience. Fluency in English is required (IELTS score of 6 or higher is preferred). They must also meet other criteria, such as age and willingness to relocate. For detailed eligibility information, please visit our website

The six-month pre-departure training will be held at Sarah University in Dharamsala, India. It includes Dutch language preparation (B2 Nieuw-CNVAT level), nursing skills, geriatric care, psychology, and interview preparation.

The first month of accommodation is provided as part of the program, excluding the security deposit. Upon arrival, nurses will receive support with housing, internet, groceries, and SIM cards. Additionally, the program covers the cost of paid accommodation for the first one months and assists with their integration into the Belgian healthcare system.

Nurses must pass the A2-level Dutch language exam conducted by HIVSET Nursing School or the Dutch Roof Consultancy in Bangalore in May and continue their studies to reach the B2 level. Successful completion qualifies them for the Single Permit Visa and placement in Belgium.

iNurse offers a cost-effective recruitment model focusing on training, relocation support, and long-term success.

The iNurse project is led by Kiki Kalsang Choedon, a highly experienced nurse with expertise in both Indian and Belgian healthcare.
