The MoU allows MSF to train fifty (50) enrolled nurses and midwives from Sierra Leone in a two-year Registered Diploma in Nursing/Midwifery programme in Ghana.

The trainees after undergoing the 2-year Registered Diploma in Nursing/ Midwifery programme will sit for the Council’s licensing examination in Ghana after which they will graduate and be inducted in Sierra Leone.
