This article looks at the initial experiences of employers with persons who have achieved a professional qualification after completing pilot programmes of higher education study in nursing in North Rhine-Westphalia. It outlines selected results on individual fields of deployment and factors leading to successful career entry and concludes by highlighting associated implications in this regard and by identifying areas where action is required. The research results have been achieved within the scope of a more comprehensive study into graduates of eleven pilot courses of study in five healthcare professions (VAMOS) in North Rhine-Westphalia.
