We will be attending the Irish Times Higher Options careers fair, along with our colleagues from the Office of Nursing and Midwifery Service Director (ONMSD) and our Student Ambassadors.  

Higher Options is Ireland's largest education and careers fair for second-level students. This year’s event will take place at the RDS in Dublin from 16 to 18 September 2026. 

Visitors to our stand will have the opportunity to learn more about careers in nursing and midwifery, educational pathways into the professions and the role of NMBI as the regulator of nurses and midwives in Ireland. 

Our aim is to promote the professions and encourage students to consider a career in nursing and midwifery. 

Members of the NMBI team, the ONMSD and our Student Ambassadors will be available throughout the event. 

If you know anyone who is interested in a nursing and midwifery career, they can visit our stand and we will be happy to provide information and answer their questions. We will also be taking part in daily panel discussion to share insights and promote the professions.   

You have a dedicated careers section on our website with information and videos about the options available to students. We would encourage you to share this link with any future nurses and midwives.
