What documents do I need to submit together with my CORU registration forms? All applicants would need to submit the following:

Why Do So Many Social Workers Fail the CORU Registration Process?
One of the main reasons social workers face challenges with CORU registration is incorrectly completed forms. CORU assessors evaluate applications based on Ireland’s specific standards and requirements. If your experience is not described in the required format or there are gaps, you may be asked to complete an aptitude test or an adaptation period.
To improve your chances of success, consider adding case studies to your application to better demonstrate your expertise.
