I know. I understand German higher education. I work there. I also have most of my family (back in the US) in medicine at various levels.
The US registered nurse degree is usually a four-year degree that involves practical experience, but has a level of biology, physiology, anatomy, and biochemistry that the German regiment has no time for. It’s one of the reasons that nurses in the US can do things German nurses can’t, like give shots.
We could go further and talk about physician education, where someone can be a GP with only a bachelor’s in Germany, but maybe a later time…
My point was: OP’s wife might only need to take the certification test. I’m sure she’s over overqualified too be a basic nurse here. Degrees are generally recognized ever since Germany switched to the international bachelor/ Master/PhD system about 15 years ago
Yeah, I saw where this was going. You have a thing against studying.
I don’t know what you mean with the second paragraph. I already don’t believe in that sort of voodoo. Keep in mind, Germany invented much of that bullshit. They still hawk homeopathic mumbo jumbo at pharmacies
