RGN Linda! You are the first Black African woman I have come across as an ACP and you do not disappoint at all! Watching your video gave me the confidence to apply for this role. Big thanks to the person who asked for your IG handle. If you did not answer I would not have known that you offer career coaching and mentoring 🤗
As an African in this UK, it is easy to doubt one’s ability, especially when your dream job is oversaturated with people who do not look like you. Seeing you has reignited my fire. We can do this

Hi all Linda, just got my Final result!! Officially an ACP! How is your journey going? How close are you to completion? I remember looking at this video and smiling at the good information you gave. Good luck with everything!

[siobhan]

I recently watched your video on and I must say, it was incredibly insightful and well-structured. Your video covers everything from entry requirements to the four pillars of Advanced Clinical Practice. The timestamps were particularly helpful, allowing me to easily revisit key sections. Your personal insights and clear explanations about the role, salary, and funding were invaluable. I am currently interested in becoming an ACP, and your video has been a great motivator. Additionally, I reached out to you on Instagram, and you responded immediately. We had a lengthy chat on WhatsApp, where you provided further guidance and support. Your willingness to help and your passion for assisting other nurses in advancing their careers is truly commendable. Thank you for your dedication to helping other nurses progress in their careers.

Your video was so informative.

My practice wouldn’t support me on the ACP even though i was offered funding. So now i am going through a longer route.
Currently doing my prescribing luckily my training hub funded that but my emergency care course i am funding myself. I am hoping to work in A&E which i will have to do as a band 5 get some experience there and apply for the ACP.
Seems like theres so much hurdles to get through just to have be supported through the course.

I really appreicate your video

Are there job roles as an ACP (physio-sector) outside of UK?
Is it an established known role outside UK

[olufunkeatejioye]

Good afternoon Linda. Thank you so much for this video. I will like to ask, do I need to have a MSC in Nursing before I can be an ACP or I can just do the MSC in ACP straight up. Also, I work in the theatre currently, and I will like to be an ACP.
Thank you

[nadzk]

Thank you so much. I’m starting nursing degree this September in London and I aspire to reach this level ❤

[luketaylor]

Question for you Linda please, Can you apply for the MSc in ACP without being under an NHS Trust/ employer? Every university I've seen has asked as a requirement that you have to have a reference from your employer to say there is a need for an ANP or ACP and you also need a mentor at your place of work. So it seems you need to apply for an apprenticeship role. Thanks Luke

[Mattbriggs]

Can someone with a Pharmaceutical science degree but has been working as clinical research scientists transition into the ACP role?

[vannyakp]

5 stars for you. I’m beyond excited to see a WOC taking that role. I did see in some places that you need to be a band 6 to apply and become band 7 as trainee and on completion band 8A.
Can you work in GP as ACP

[dushsingh]

Hi Linda, your video is fantastic. I already have a MSc.Nursing degree but it wasn’t an ANP program. Do I need to do another MSc related to ANP?
And what are the chances for a care home nurse to become a ANO in GP practice ?

[mikelmassami]

Would you advise any nursing areas/departments that will help you to get on that journey? Thank you

[PreetiNair-undj]

Hii Linda need help to apply for trainee ACP

[AugustinaTsikata]

Please can international students apply? If yes can you help with the universities offering the program for international students.

[stephymarymathew]

The entry requirements for MSC show finding mentor ..how will you do that??
