Nurses who wish to work in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates(UAE) would always encounter
the word HAAD certificate as one of the major requirements. The emirate of Abu
Dhabirequires all medical professionals who wish to work in their area of jurisdiction to be
registered at Health Authority Abu Dhabi (HAAD).

It aims to provide a solid foundation for licensing health professionals in Abu Dhabi by the
use of assessment tools that measure core and specialist competencies required for each
professional group.

The HAAD certificate gives a nurse or other medical workers the license to practice their
profession in Abu Dhabi. Nurses who took and passed the HAAD-RN exam can legally be
deployed in any private health care facilities in Abu Dhabi. In a lot of ways, the HAAD is
similar to National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).

The HAAD exam can be taken in any Pearson Vue testing centers, the same system that
conducts the examination for NCLEX.
