title: Will enrolled nurses feature in the English National Board's equal opportunities policy research?
abstract: The English National Board for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting is planning to evaluate the implementation of its equal opportunities policy with reference to the recruitment into nurse education and training of people from ethnic minority groups. This paper argues the case for including in this initiative a close examination of the processes of conversion from enrolled to registered nurse status and of the experiences of those nurses seeking promotion through this route. Past recruitment of many black and ethnic minority people into this level of nursing and their continuing service there makes this a potentially fruitful area of enquiry.
