Step 1: Establish Your Eligibility
Before beginning the registration process, it’s essential to confirm that you meet the DHA’s eligibility criteria. These criteria vary depending on your profession (e.g., doctor, nurse, pharmacist, etc.) and typically include the following:
- Educational Requirements: You must have the appropriate educational qualifications for your profession. For example, doctors must hold an MBBS degree or equivalent, while nurses require a BSc in Nursing.
- Work Experience: Depending on your profession, you may need a specific amount of work experience post-graduation. For instance, general practitioners usually need two years of experience, while specialists may need more.
- Good Standing Certificate: You must provide a certificate of good standing from your current or previous regulatory body, proving that you have no history of professional misconduct.
- Language Proficiency: Non-native English speakers may need to demonstrate proficiency in English through standardized tests like IELTS or TOEFL unless their education was completed in an English-speaking country.
Before proceeding, review the DHA’s detailed eligibility requirements for your specific profession. Ensuring you meet these requirements will save time and help avoid delays in your application.
