as much as I know, there is a campus on Ramstein Air Base. I've heard about people taking classes. Don't know which college and if they offer nursing. But I can tell you this. Public college in Germany is held in German. You won't do so well, if you don't speak the language perfectly.
2 :
I don't know about the classes they offer on base, but nursing is nothing that you will be able to study at a German university, as in Germany, nurses become nurses through apprenticeships. Depending on what school diploma you have (Hauptschulabschluß, Realschulabschluß or Abitur), you will take a three year or a two year apprenticeship program. That is, people apply for an apprenticeship in a hospital, and if they get the job, in the first year they go to school (Berufsschule) on several days a week, and than in the last year they only go one day a week. I don't know which German school diploma a High School diploma equals to, most likely a Realschulabschluß/ mittlere Reife. Working and school language would be German, though.

The first thing you have to do is get your RN as no real hospital is going to accept an Lpn. -I'm sorry but that's just the truth and I know it's hard and expensive......... Then, after you get your RN they have companies that specialize in Travel Nursing where you can go all over the US. Germany most likely won't take you unless, because they are somewhat like Canada, you have a special skill not found in the country. They reserve their jobs for citizens first. There is a way around it but a company would have to sponsor and request you. Go back and get your RN, you don't want to "wipe butt" for the rest of your life.
2 :
You would need to have a work visa and a German nursing license which would likely require you to have your BSN and know how to speak German.
3 :
To work as a nurse on a US military base, you would have to be in the US military. As an LPN, you aren't getting an employment visa work practically anywhere. It simply is not an adequate qualification for employment visas. RN is not enough most places, either. You'd need at least BSN, preferably MSN with a rare specialization, to be hired in most foreign countries and eligible for an employment visa. Employers have to obtain employment visas for their employees in most countries - you cannot apply. Also note that it is very difficult for any non-EU citizen to obtain employment and visa to work anywhere in the EU. Employment preferences are first, citizens of that country, then citizens of other EU countries.

filipino nurses in germany

filipino nurses in germany?
my BF will be deployed in germany on may 2008. he sure does not want to not see me for the next 3 years..and is wondering if i can work as a nurse there. i heard that foreign nurses have a lower chance to be employed there because of the communication barrier. my question is, what are the things that i have to do, like is there a certain licensure exam that i need to pass like NCLEX or CGFNS for US countries? and what is the best approach that needs to be done to increase my chance of being employed? To Kengoller: the link is not working. is marrying him the only option? im too young to marry..its not that im not sure about him and our relationship..im just too young as 21.

Here is a novel approach - get the info from the next German embassy! Thanks for the kudos I deserve now.

Without speaking German you will have no chance to work in a German hospital. May be you can work in the American army hospital in Landstuhl. Try to get more information from this link. http://www.landstuhl.healthcare.hqusareur.army.mil/

If you can't speak fluent German you can't get a job. I assume he's in the military. Tell him to marry you so you can go with him.

Well sweetie since it is I you are writing about... We are too young to marry now but we have the potential to be a great if not the greatest Mr. and Mrs. ever... The thing is we are both very realistic and intellegent more her than me... We also see that the reality of divorce revolves around the fact that couples often rush and although we are in love the magic dust only lingers for so long. We want to be real partners first because life is a battle and we have to be unified fully tried and tested before we take that step. We both have high opportunity if we marry she can get citizenship and become an Officer in the U.S Airforce and I can get out and persue my business passion. But neither of us are Opportunist we are in Love and we want to approach this with advice and prayer... We are quite responsible for a 21year old poor girl from Pi and a 23 year old poor brother from the hood of Los Angeles... But we know what it is to witness divorce as both my mother and hers were single parents... We want to be together but we want to take our time so if there are options outside of marrying please inform us. Thanks
