Veranda Learning has announced a strategic partnership with Nursing Europe AS (NE) to empower Indian nurses with the skills needed to secure employment in Europe’s healthcare sector.
Nursing Europe AS, a company based on the experiences of renowned Norwegian entities, specializes in providing fully EU-qualified and licensed nurses to healthcare providers across European nations. This partnership is projected to generate significant revenue, with estimates of over ₹200 crores in the next 3-5 years by placing more than 2,000 students.
The global skilling initiative will offer a range of training and support services, including:
- Tailored Training Programs: Courses designed to meet European healthcare standards, focusing on both clinical and non-clinical competencies.
- Language Proficiency Courses: Preparing Indian nurses to achieve fluency in the languages required for effective patient care in their destination countries.
- Cultural Orientation: Equipping nurses with the necessary understanding of European work environments and cultural norms, ensuring a smooth transition.
Europe faces a critical shortage of healthcare professionals, with the World Health Organization (WHO) projecting a shortfall of 13 million healthcare workers by 2030. Countries like Norway, Denmark, Germany, Austria, and Italy urgently need qualified nurses to meet this growing demand. This shortage presents a unique opportunity for Indian nurses, who are highly skilled but often encounter challenges such as degree recognition, language proficiency, and cultural adaptation when seeking employment abroad.
