For many nursing graduates in Nigeria, the transition from school to practice is anything but straightforward.
At the centre of this uncertainty is the country’s centralised internship system—a process that, while designed to streamline placement, often leaves applicants with more questions than answers.
From understanding eligibility criteria to navigating application timelines and securing placements, the journey can feel overwhelming.
This is exactly the gap FYNI is stepping in to address.
On Thursday, 16th April 2026, at 6:00 PM (WAT), FYNI will host a focused and highly practical webinar titled “Navigating Nursing Internship in Nigeria: Understanding the Centralised Internship System.”
This session is built not just to inform, but to equip nursing graduates with clarity, confidence, and actionable direction.
At the heart of the conversation is Dr. Ndagi Al-Hassan, Registrar of the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria.
With direct oversight of nursing regulation in Nigeria, Dr. Al-Hassan brings authoritative insight into how the centralised internship system works—cutting through speculation and misinformation that often circulates among graduates.
Participants can expect a breakdown of the entire internship process, including how the centralised system was designed, what it aims to solve, and where candidates typically encounter challenges.
More importantly, the session will focus on practical guidance—what steps to take, how to prepare, and how to improve your chances of successfully navigating the process.
This is not a generic webinar. It is a response to real concerns from real graduates—those eager to begin their professional journey but held back by a lack of clear, accessible information.
In a healthcare system where timing, accuracy, and positioning can significantly shape career trajectories, understanding the internship system is critical.
Missing key steps or misinterpreting requirements can lead to delays that ripple into long-term professional setbacks.
FYNI’s goal is simple: to ensure that no nursing graduate is left navigating this system blindly.
To make the session even more relevant, participants are encouraged to submit their questions in advance. This ensures that the discussion reflects the lived realities of attendees, not just theoretical explanations.
Nigeria’s healthcare workforce continues to face both opportunity and strain. As more nursing graduates enter the pipeline, the pressure on internship placements increases. At the same time, the centralised system—while a step toward structure—requires a better understanding from those it is designed to serve.
This webinar represents a critical intervention at the intersection of policy, practice, and professional growth.
