U.S.–Nigeria Bridge Navigator
The full corridor between Nigerian training and a first U.S. role — the thing no other hub maps.
The Bridge Navigator lays out the end-to-end journey in order — and, just as importantly, distinguishes the pharmacist-licensure route from industry, research, regulatory and academic science tracks (many diaspora scientists do not need pharmacist licensure at all). It always points you to the official regulatory authority.
This system is being rolled out — the interactive build is in progress.
What this includes
- The ordered corridor: credential evaluation → FPGEE → English test → intern hours → NAPLEX/MPJE → first U.S. role
- A separate scientist track for industry, research, regulatory, academic and medical-affairs careers
- A reverse view: U.S. and diaspora professionals engaging opportunities in Nigeria
- Every step tied to an official source (NABP, PCN) with a review date
This is guidance only, not legal or immigration advice. The detailed step-by-step corridor is under editorial review before publication. Always verify current requirements with the official bodies — the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) and the Pharmacists Council of Nigeria (PCN).
