NMC PIN Renewal: How to renew your PIN online.
NMC PIN Renewal: The Nursing and Midwifery Council has replaced the old cards which had 3 years validity with new ones with 5 years validity.
According to NM&C, the new cards can not be compromised due to the enhanced security.
Also the introduction of online payment and pin renewal make it easier for nurses to renew their PIN anytime and anywhere.
In this article, we’ll look at how to renew your PIN or AIN with the N&MC Android App, the app is also available for IOS users on the Appstore.
How to Renew NMC PIN
How to Sign Up
- Tap “Continue” when you first launch the App.
- Tap on “Create an account”.
- In the next activity (screen), you’ll have to verify your details after which, tap “Next”. Enter the following details;
- Registration Number: Enter your registration number as stated on your N&MC certificate/AIN. e.g.: PHN2783
- PIN/AIN: You need the code on the N&MC card given to you. e.g.: 16GO43119008
- Your Full Name.
Now, you’ll want to type the following details to create your account.
Username: I assume you have a Facebook account so you know what a username is.
Password: A strong password contains letters, numbers, and symbols. Concerning the letters, you should use both lower and upper cases. Yet, it can be as simple as Kay23 or Frank23@23 in but write it somewhere so you don’t lose it if you forget.
It is difficult to recover your password from the app once you forget it.
Email: Enter your email address here e.g.: myhealthinkanilove@gmail.com
Phone number: Provide a valid phone number.
Next, set your three recovery questions, you’ll be given 9 questions in all to select and answer 3.
You MUST type true answers (that you can remember) because you’ll be asked these questions when you forget your password and wants to recover it.
Some Apps will ask too if they detect unusual activity on your account. After this step, your account should be created.

Uploading CPD Certs
The first step here is to upload your N&MC CPD certificates. These are the certs you had when you completed courses on the WCEA app and took exams.
So, head out to the button with the ‘graduation hat’ (the last one on the WCEA app), and download your certificates but I think it better to get the PDF document which contains the courses you’ve taken and their respective points.
Tap on the ‘Download’ button at the top of the activity that launches when you tapped on the graduation hat to get it.
