Trust this finds you well! Currently a serving soldier as a recovery mechanic but I have had interest in practicing mental health nursing which I have told my chain of command about. My question is how to I transfer from my current job role to the MHN

    Thanks for your question, that's exciting you are thinking about a career change.

    As you are currently serving it sounds like you have taken the right route by highlighting this to your Chain of Command.  I would just follow up with them to understand your options.  If you don't have any nursing qualifications you would need to go to Defence School of Healthcare Education within Birmingham City University to complete a nursing degree.  

    All transfers are handled internally so sorry we can't offer more advice at this time.  Wishing you lots of luck 😊
