Filipino nurses deployed to Germany through Triple Win Project

Fourteen months since a government-to-government agreement concerning the placement of
Filipino health professionals in the Federal Republic of Germany was signed, the so-called
Triple Win Migration Project that allows Filipino nurses to be employed in Germany has
realized the job matching with the hospital employers in Frankfurt and Tubingen for 17
nurses.

The first group of nurses who left for Germany in December 2013 and January and May this
year are in the process of recognition to qualify themselves as registered nurses. In the
meantime, they work as assistant nurses based on the Triple Win migration model.

Other groups of nurse-candidate who qualified to be included in the active pool of the POEA
have gone through the Project Interview conducted by the International Placement Services
under the Federal Employment Agency and the German Cooperation Agency (BA/ZAV and
GIZ). Those who passed are lined up for interview with the other prospective hospital
employers. Further interviews by ZAV and GIZ will be conducted later this year as part of
the second round of pre-selection.

Before the pre-qualified nurses could be deployed under the Project, they need to pass an
assessment for a B1 level of German language proficiency, complete a pre-departure
orientation and professional training, pass the medical examination requirement and obtain
the work visa.
