CORU registration as radiographer - asking for compensation measure

Hello everyone,

I've been trying for almost a year to get registered with CORU as a radiographer from Portugal. I have gotten a job offer to work in Ireland and have been trying to get registered to move to Ireland and start my job, but this process has been... complicated... to say the least...

After multiple months I've finally gotten a decision and they want me to take a compensation measure in the form of a test or a period of adaptation (POA), specifically for one week in dental imaging. I was relaxed before because I had been made aware that ym future employer had been able to offer POA to another candidate that was going along with me, but unfortunately they aren't able to provide a POA for me as they don't carry any dental imaging services.

Now I'm at a loss on what to do. I don't know how to find a POA or if the exam is the better way to go. I'm struggling to find anything on how the exam works (scheduling, format of the exam, how to effectively prepare for it). All I know is it's supposed to be specifically about the things they considered insufficient in my qualifications from Portugal.

Has anyone here gone through this? Any help would be appreciated.
