Internationalisation of the curriculum (IoC) is a focus for higher education institutions. IoC aims to equip students with essential enhanced skills in relation to becoming global citizens and ensuring that their practice is culturally competent. Undergraduate courses must furnish children's nursing students with learning opportunities that meet the outcomes of the 2018 Nursing and Midwifery Council standards of proficiency. The standards require that nursing education, supervision and training should provide students with the learning opportunities needed to achieve the desired proficiencies and programme outcomes. This article analyses and evaluates the implementation of an online international learning (OIL) project in an undergraduate children's nursing programme in the UK. The pilot project has been identified as a useful and successful teaching method for promoting intercultural awareness among students and provides guidance for future OIL design. Finally, this article offers recommendations on how to address barriers and challenges related to this teaching method.
